More than 100 new, vintage, designer and celebrity handbags will be featured at the Peninsula Volunteers' fundraiser on Friday, Nov. 13, at the Menlo Circus Club, 190 Park Lane in Atherton.

Celebrity bags will include those donated by or signed by Maria Shriver, Meg Whitman, Cheryl Burke of "Dancing with the Stars," Michael Kors, Pat Montadon, Phyllis Diller, and "American Idol" singer Katharine McPhee. The silent auction will also include a bag belonging to the late Lana Turner.

Jewelry designer Stephen Dweck will present a collection of his original designs at 11:15 a.m. Mr. Dweck's jewelry has been featured in fine stores since his first line was launched at Bergdorf Goodman in 1981. His jewelry is on permanent display in the costume department of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and the fashion archives of the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C.

A luncheon and fashion show follow at 12:30 p.m., with fashions from Marian Clayden, Jackie Jones, and Amber by Graciana.
