Gay Hollywood
Where the Stars Come Out! |
The Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, DC, invites you to join members, friends and family of the Chorus at its 6th annual Spring Affair on May 16, 2009, at the JW Marriott Hotel on Pennsylvania Avenue at Fourteenth Street, NW, Washington, DC. This year’s theme is Gay Hollywood and more than 450 people are expected to attend. It is sure to be a night to remember!
The Spring Affair is GMCW’s largest fundraising event of the year, and is one of the primary ways the Chorus raises critical funds to support its many community outreach activities, such as participation in supporting health services, educational programs for youth and adults, sponsoring Student and PWA Ticket Funds and many others. The proceeds from the Spring Affair also help the Chorus remain one of the premier choral ensembles in the DC region and, truly, the nation.
This gala evening features live and silent auctions, an elegant dinner, the Golden Ticket Raffle, the presentation of annual Harmony Awards, the most creative basket raffle you’re likely to find and, of course, live entertainment from members of GMCW.
Please join the women and men of GMCW for an evening that is sure to enlighten and entertain.
