Got your tickets yet? The White Center Jubilee Days Spring Gala/Auction is just days away. Here’s the Facebook invite; you can buy tickets online here. It’s this Saturday night, 6:30 pm at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center (4408 Delridge Way SW in West Seattle).
ADDED TUESDAY: More info – in an official media-release announcement:
Jubilee Days! White Center’s annual summer festival, which has been running for more than 80 years, is a celebration of our great neighborhood and is the result of true community effort. The production of Jubilee Days is ongoing. It takes about a year to organize, raise the funds, book the bands and vendors, and to manage all the behind-the-scenes business to get the festival off the ground, just in time to do it all again.
We are currently in the throes of raising crucial dollars for what we believe will be the best White Center Jubilee Days ever. We have approached this year’s event with great ambition to reflect our feelings for the neighborhood and its amazing potential. Which brings us to JUBILEE DAYS SILENT AUCTION AND SPRING GALA, THIS SATURDAY! This fundraising extravaganza will feature fabulous entertainment, food from White Center businesses, a cash bar, a raffle, and wonderful items for your bidding pleasure. Here are a few details:
Our MC, Sarah Rudinoff, Stranger Genius Award recipient, is an all-around superstar, always entertaining and will certainly put the F U N in fundraiser!
Entertainment will include a performance by aerialist Jenna Lutton, a Capoeira exhibition from Capoeira Malês, crowd mover DJ Dr. Lehl, and we may have a surprise or two up our sleeve.
Big-ticket auction items include a pontoon boat for the avid fly fisherman and a ride-along with White Center’s own Deputy BJ Myers!
House-made hors d’oeuvres and small plates from Uncle Mike’s Barbeque, the Salvadorean Bakery, and El Paisano will be provided.
50/50 raffle with cash prize!
And did we mention cash bar with expert bartenders? Full Bar available.
Fundraiser within a fundraiser! What? That’s right. We will have Big Al’s Hi-Yu Bru Pale Ale available for purchase, proceeds of which will be donated to a local charity.
Raising money for a good cause has never been so easy.
Tickets are $35 and can be purchased in the heart of White Center at Company Bar, Full Tilt Ice Cream and Proletariat Pizza, or online at: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/230535
