Attendees will have the chance to win a $500 Eileen Fisher wardrobe. Plus, Dillard’s will donate 10% of in-store Eileen Fisher sales to Debbie Gaby Charities. Saks Fifth Avenue On April 5, Saks will host an event at Western Spirit: Scottsdale Museum of the West. Through a partnership with Scottsdale-based contemporary jewelry designer Coomi, the retailer will donate a portion of the proceeds to the museum. The event is unique because it doesn’t fit the typical event mold. Instead, it will focus on special guest Coomi. Saks is also hosting its third annual in-store event benefiting Free Arts on April 7. Lisa Portigal and Megan Schwalle are co-chairing the Art from the Heart Art Auction, where guests can enjoy a silent auction featuring masterful works by artist Fred Tieken of the Tieken Studio and Gallery AZ, as well as prominent Arizona artists.
