Only 7 spots left! Parents, imagine this: a day when you DON'T have to pack your kid's lunch! Now that's an auction item worth bidding on!

What kid DOESN'T love a pizza party with Ms. Lauren?!

This fun MSGL annual tradition invites students to the main office conference room for pizza, grapes, cookies, water, games, and a favorite story. Older guests might even get the chance to read the story themselves!

BOILERMAKER FANS, THIS ONE IS FOR YOU.

The Moment:
This incredible piece captures Purdue guard Braden Smith famously flexing after hitting a tough shot over Michigan defenders during the Big Ten Tournament on March 15, 2026. His performance helped propel Purdue to the Big Ten Tournament Championship.

The Jersey:
This one-of-a-kind piece features a JSA-authenticated, signed Braden Smith jersey, beautifully displayed in a custom-designed 24" x 36" frame. It includes the inscription:

“All Time Assist Leader in Big Ten”

The Backstory:
The Lee Family says MSGL has been a wonderful, safe place for their daughters to grow and learn over the last few years. Wanting to give back and support the upcoming MSGL Auction, they created this unique piece for Boilermaker fans to enjoy — and bid on!

Anyone who knows Young Lee knows the passion and incredible attention to detail he puts into every project. We are so grateful that the Lee Family chose to share that talent with MSGL and help make our auction even more special.
