The 11th annual Girls Night Out — the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Port Moody Arts Centre — attracted more than 150 women to the Bollywood-themed event, held last night at Port Moody city hall.
The bash, which was sponsored by Scotiabank and The Tri-City News, saw many participants dressed in colourful saris raise a glass for Making it Work, the latest campaign by PMAC to collect funds for the expanded arts hub on St. Johns Street.
Attendees were also treated to sevices and products from local beauty businesses and served up tasty appetizers and desserts from Masala Junction.
Afterward, the ladies filed into the Inlet Theatre to hear funny stories from comedians Erica Sigurdson, Fatima Dhowre, Melanie Rose and Jane Stanton; Sigurdson has been the emcee of every Girls Night Out since the fundraiser started.
Meanwhile, PMAC is readying for its next money maker of the year: the R.E.S.P.E.C.T. gala performance is being billed as “an evening of art and soul,” with proceeds also supporting the Making it Work drive. It takes place Nov. 12 at Port Moody city hall, with cocktails starting at 6:30 p.m.
