The holiday season is almost upon us, and it will be “Fashion to a Tea”
at The Vancouver Symphony Orchestra’s annual fund-raiser at the Hilton
Vancouver, it was announced today by VSO President Celia Gesting. The
event combines and celebrates friendship and food and will run from
11:30 am-1:30 pm, and is planned and hosted by “Friends of the
Vancouver Symphony.” Included in the festive program will be a
sit-down lunch, holiday decorations, a silent auction and a runway
fashion show.
Tickets are priced at $50 and can be purchased by calling the VSO at
(360) 735-7278, with all proceeds benefiting The Vancouver Symphony
Orchestra. For more information, contact committee chair Kalani Davis
at (360) 600-2542 or at KalaniDavis@comcast.net .
“Many people are not aware that ticket sales for The Vancouver Symphony
Orchestra only account for 20% of the revenue required to operate the
orchestra,” said VSO President Celia Gesting. “That’s why we present
fun and interesting events like the Tea and Fashion Show. The VSO
certainly knows how to have fun raising funds.”
“Going into the holidays, this annual event is a great way to get
together with old friends and make new business contacts in a very
relaxed and enjoyable way,” said Ms. Davis.
“Friends of the Vancouver Symphony” is comprised of fifty dedicated
volunteers supporting and assisting the VSO during concerts and
throughout the year.
The Hilton Vancouver is located in downtown Vancouver at 301 W. 6th Street.
