Calling all film buffs, the indie giant A24 has just announced A24 Auctions, a new venture to benefit New York City’s workers and families who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the auctions of movie and television memorabilia, which will take place online in April and May, will be donated to four charities working to help the city’s hardest-hit communities and frontline workers, including FDNY Foundation, Food Bank For NYC, NYC Health + Hospitals, and Queens Community House.

Fans of the arthouse company will be quick to recognize many of the props, wardrobe items, and set pieces that are headed to the digital auction block. For the first round of auctions, which launch today at 12 p.m. ET today and close on different days in May, items include pieces from Euphoria, Mid90s, Eighth Grade, Hereditary, Midsommar, Uncut Gems, and The Lighthouse. Some of the items expected to command high bids include the the mythical lighthouse lens and the carved wooden mermaid from The Lighthouse; Rue’s wardrobe from Euophia; and of course, the opal, the iced-out furby necklace (though the diamonds aren’t real; they’re crystal), KMH jewelry store merch, and Kevin Garnett’s Celtics jersey from the Safdie brothers’ hit, Uncut Gems.

Other items that are headed to the auction block include a skateboard from Jonah Hill’s Mid90s, the 33-pound floral dress worn by Florence Pugh in the finale of Midsommar, and the time capsule shoebox from Eighth Grade.

A24 was founded in New York City and launched the charity auction as a way to give back to its hometown as the city continues to fight the pandemic and think about rebuilding. “The craftspeople that make these props put a lot of time and effort and love and sweat and tears into creating them, so if it can have another life, that’s great,” says The Lighthouse filmmaker Robert Eggers in an interview with the New York Times. “And it couldn’t be for a better cause.”
