Gabriola’s Hottest Tickets… “Tempest in a Teacup”

The Gabriola Arts Council turns 20 this year, and the traditional 20th anniversary gift is CHINA! Our very clever friends at the Art’s council made that the Theme of this years 3^rd annual Fundraising Gala Tempest in a Teacup: The China Affair — our 3rd annual fundraising gala on Saturday, January 28th, 2017 at the Community Hall.

Tickets are on sale now, but will likely quickly sell out – this is an AMAZING evening, and 40% of the funds raised in the silent Auction goes back to the Arts Council, who offer so many excellent programs and events throughout the year. For those wanting a sneak peak, the artwork will be featured online and at the Folklife Village in the window display!

We are super excited to be participating, among this very talented group and look forward to seeing you there!
