Come dance to the fabulous sounds of 2023 Maggie Award winning band LunaSea and relax with beer, wine, delicious hors d’oeuvres and desserts from Middle of the Island Catering in Hanger #70E on Beach Road near the old terminal location off Long Beach Road.
Individual $75 tickets can be purchased with a credit card online at https://www.upyourarts.org/southport-art-spaces/uya_cf_gala/2023-gala/.
Tickets will also be available using cash or check at five retail outlets in Southport starting March 8: Ricky Evans Gallery, the Wine Rack, Artisans Gallery on Howe, Franklin Square Gallery, and Uncorked By the Sea. Sponsorships with a variety of benefits are available by contacting info@upyourarts.org.
The winners of the “Raise Up Your Arts” pole banner project will be showcased during the gala, along with their banners, seen for the first time in public before they are installed on utility poles in Southport’s business district from May-November this year. Many thanks to the City of Southport and Downtown Southport, Inc., for ensuring the success of this inaugural event.
Individual pieces of the banner winners’ artwork will be offered for sale during the gala’s live auction. An abundance of silent auction items are planned, as well, bringing within gala goers’ easy reach the delights of everything from a six-seater plane flight over the Cape Fear River to live musical performances at a private party.
