The Beaux Arts Ball is the major fundraiser of the year for the Tall Grass Arts Association in Park Forest, IL.  It is a gala ball with dinner and dancing, has an honoree, and uses a silent auction and raffles.  This event is a major component of the fundraising.   One of the uses of the funds raised at this event is in the operation of a school that offers classes to children and adults and fundraises to provide scholarships to low-income students.  Many of these children would not have the opportunity, without our scholarships, to learn about the world of art and experience the joy or creating something that is unique to themselves and their vision of something.
