Our goal for this year’s event is to reach a wide audience of all ages, incomes and backgrounds who love the arts and will enjoy an evening of theater, music, food, raffles, and door prizes. Family Crisis Services will also take the opportunity to share information about our services and to raise awareness about domestic violence as it affects our communities. With this ambition in mind, an eclectic event has been planned that promises to deliver a memorable evening for all.
