SLSC Pillar #1 Reloaded and REVIVED!

One of my favorite places in SL to just pop over is to the SL Shakespeare Company Group - Globe Theatre and wander around, looking at the build. It's a detailed replica of the original and one of the most extraordinary builds in SL. I'd also been to see two performances there and have enjoyed myself immensely while the highly dedicated team of virtual actors performs their magic on stage.

I received a note from Ina Centaur, the group's owner regarding their continued efforts to raise funds to support their efforts in providing residents of Second Life a taste of the "Bard". I've included much her note card below. Please do what you can to help this noble and worthwhile cause.

Ina Centaur:

We didn't quite make our first pillar in our 14-Pillars fundraiser. Nope, though at the time we started it there were 14 million registered accounts on SL, we haven't yet seen every single one of them drop by and donate just L$1 to fill these 14 pillars, a million per pillar. We've only raised about 25% of our first pillar. Now that we've had our fun with art in our last production, we must return to the nitty gritty fundraising again. So, here's Pillar #1 Reloaded.

To kick off this fundraiser, Aberdon Enigma and Fauve Aeon of (Ardentia)Ars has donated 38,976 square meters of double-prim contiguous land in an Azure Island private residential estate. The land can be taken as a whole, or as parcels, with starting bids:
