Transylvania County Arts Council in Brevard, NC, Presents Spring Gala

The Transylvania Community Arts Center in Brevard, NC, will come alive for an evening of fun, food, games, and a touch of magic on May 19 with A Night at the Grand.

The Transylvania County Arts Council's annual spring benefit gala, begins at 7:00 p.m. Tickets cost $25 and are available at the Community Arts Center, or by calling 828/884-2787.

The evening begins with the opportunity to test your luck and skill at several gaming tables, including roulette, poker, black jack, and bingo. In addition to instant prizes at the bingo table, "fun money" winnings can be used to bid for prizes donated by local businesses and artists, including Ann DerGara, Ellen Nadler, The White Squirrel Shoppe, and Main Street Limited.

Matt Fore's magical comedy show will entertain the crowd before the auction. Fore has performed on Carnival cruise lines, and has opened for Crystal Gale. "We're very fortunate to have Matt back for a second year - he was so popular last year, and his touring schedule is now very heavy," said Susan Cook, Executive Director of TCarts.

Heavy hors d'oeuvres and wine will be served throughout the evening.

Cook said the event will raise several thousand dollars for TCarts. "Not only will this be an elegant and fun event, but all money raised will go toward our programs and operations, improving arts outreach into the community."
