Kineret's Venezuelan Cuisine-HAMMERS & HARDHATS LIVE AUCTION

9/11/2025

ABOUT THE HAMMERS AND HARDHATS LIVE AUCTION
This exclusive package will only be available during the live auction at Hammers and Hardhats on September 18. Learn more about our event here. If you can’t attend but would like to set up proxy bidding, contact [email protected]. For more information on proxy bidding, please see below.


Looking for an unforgettable dining experience? Longtime Habitat supporter, former Board member, and exceptional cook Kineret Zabner is opening her kitchen—and her heart—to host the winning bidder and seven friends for an authentic Venezuelan feast.

Guests can choose to gather at Kineret’s beautiful Chauncey Building home in downtown Iowa City, complete with spectacular views, or have the meal delivered to their own table for a private dinner party without the cooking. Either way, you’ll enjoy unmatched hospitality, fantastic food, and warm conversation in great company.
​
The menu includes a fresh salad starter, followed by a traditional spread of pulled beef, rice, black beans, and fried plantains, all topped off with a decadent dessert of coconut flan and berries. A truly special evening you won’t want to miss!

*The winner will schedule their meal in advance with Kineret. Dates are subject to Kineret's availability. A delivered meal must be in the Iowa City, Coralville, and North Liberty area. 

Can't join us on September 18? No problem!
PROXY BIDDING: 
As you discuss the fantastic lineup of live auction items with friends, consider letting those who cannot attend know about the option to bid via proxy. A proxy bidder can be made available to bid on your behalf. The donor provides the maximum dollar amount they are willing to spend on a specific auction package, and the proxy will bid for you! Also, consider phoning a guest in at the event so they can join in the fun and get in on the bidding wars!

GROUP PACKAGE ITEM PAYMENTS: If you are considering going in on a live package with friends who are not in attendance or even uncertain who your guests might be for one of the party packages, don't hesitate to bid! Email [email protected] or discuss options with IVHFH staff to split payments with friends after the event.
