5th Annual Beacon Gala & Silent Auction

 

On Thursday, October 26, 2017, Beacon Charter Schools will hold our Fifth Annual Gala and Silent Auction to celebrate the achievements of our student artists, faculty, and staff at St Ann Arts and Cultural Center-- 84 Cumberland Street, Woonsocket 02895 @ 6:30PM. It’s been an amazing year!  Our schools continue to be among the most successful in the state and our arts programs earn more critical acclaim each year.

The Annual Gala & Silent Auction is a Beacon tradition that allows us to raise funds to support our schools. The funds raised at our Gala are critical to sustaining the high quality of our arts and academics programs. The event will be catered by our wonderful culinary students. There will be a silent auction, musical performances, a wine-bottle pull, children's costume ball, and we will be raffling off a pair of brand new Harley Davidson motorcycles (more details on the evening's events below). Although the online Silent Auction will open on October 16th, we encourage the Beacon Community to attend the Gala because many auction items will be available exclusively at the event on the 26th. 

WHAT'S NEW? 

OUR THEME THIS YEAR IS "MASQUERADE"  

Our Visual Arts students will be creating fanciful masks for you to purchase ahead of time or at the event for $5 (Masks are included with sponsorships).

We invite you to interpret this theme however you would like in your choice of dress. Fanciful dress and Masquerade Ball appropriate attire is encouraged but not required. There will be a prize for the adult who best interprets the masquerade theme in their attire.
