Step into the Spirit of the Kentucky Derby at Our Exclusive Luncheon Fundraiser!
Join us for an unforgettable afternoon of Southern charm, creativity, and philanthropy. Delight in an array of delicate tea sandwiches, refreshing mint juleps, and an inspiring hat-building demonstration led by our renowned Costume Designer, Caren Brady.
Caren, celebrated for her exceptional skill in costume design, will walk you through the art of crafting your own Kentucky Derby Hat! Bring along your favorite base hat, and we’ll provide all the embellishments you need—feathers, flowers, ribbons, and more—to create a masterpiece worthy of the Derby.
Whether you’re an experienced crafter or just looking for a fun way to try something new, this is your chance to unleash your inner creator while supporting our theater. Proceeds from this event will help us continue bringing the magic of live performance to our community.
Spaces are limited, so secure your spot early! Embrace the elegance, channel your creativity, and let’s make this a Derby Day to remember!
