It is no secret that this year has hit everyone – especially the arts – extremely hard. Our 2020 season was poised to be our best season ever. The excitement surrounding our planned performances was palpable. It all came to a screeching halt in March. At this point in time, we are still unable to open our doors due to state mandate. We do not know when – and how – we will be allowed to reopen our doors, light the lights, don costumes, cue the music and perform in front of a live audience.

However, this hasn’t slowed us down or discouraged us from gathering us all together. We’re just doing it a little differently This time, we will do it virtually as we invite you all to join us for our first ever Ghost Light Virtual Gala fundraising event.

**A Marathon of Free Entertainment!!**
The event will begin at 7:30 pm* on October 15. This is FREE for the public to view, and will continue – telethon style – for as long as we continue to raise funds. For every $10,000 raised, we will provide an 8-hour block of entertainment that will include performances, videos, memories, stories, photos, and interviews. This will stream simultaneously on our website, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube accounts.
How long will this Gala last? Our goal is to raise $50,000. That equals 40 hours of entertainment!

**A Fabulous Online Auction**
Great gifts, keepsakes, one-of-a-kind items, vacation packages (for 2021 and beyond) and unique experiences to bid on will be available Oct 15–19*. Don’t miss this opportunity to bid on some fabulous stuff!

*Exclusive pre-event Cocktail Hour**
Exclusive entertainment will begin at 6:30 pm for sponsors, special ticket package purchasers, and early donors. In addition, pre-event participants can also bid early (Oct 14-15) for online auction items.
