Venetian Masquerade
Gala and Live Auction
April 21, 2012 at Rock Creek Mansion
Our Spring Gala is a great tradition that provides a fabulous night out for parents, alumni, and friends, while raising a significant amount of money for the school. This year’s theme is Venetian Masquerade. Ball gowns are optional, but masks are highly encouraged!
Live and Silent Auctions
There are two auctions in conjunction with the Gala -- the live and silent auctions. The live auction occurs at the gala itself. The silent auction is online for two weeks and the items are displayed in the hallways of the school. We need donations for our families for both. Donations don’t have to be related to the theme but it’s fun to see what we come up with when we turn our thinking in that direction.
How about offering…
- Tickets to Milan Fashion Week - Settimana della moda
- An Italian-themed basket (fresh pasta, wine, cookies)
- Dinner at Tosca or any other local Italian restaurant
- Frequent flyer miles for a trip to Italy
- A catered Italian meal
- Italian language lessons
