New Year’s Eve Soirée 2019: Alice in Boogie Wonderland!
Tue, December 31, 2019 @ 6:30 pm–1:00 am
Come Boogie through the Looking Glass…
CENTER’s biggest fundraiser of the year is also Bellingham’s only New Year’s Eve pop-up disco! DJs are bringing the vinyl. Bellingham’s Black Water band is bringing the soul and funk. We are bringing the Alice in Wonderland-themed cocktails, flash mobs, puns, and spectacle, guilty pleasure raffle, silent auction, noshables, and complimentary champagne toast.
Dress in your New Year’s finest, or your disco finest, or your Alice in Wonderland finest (bonus for all three).
The Mad Hatter tells us all the best people are mad… in our experience that is true.
V.I.P. Cocktail Hour: 6:30pm–8:00pm
Show your support for CENTER and join us at 6:30pm for an exclusive happy hour and awards presentation. We will be serving Alice in Wonderland-themed appetizers and drink specials, and presenting our annual Sonny Awards and Sylvia Award to recognize individuals who have made a significant mark on the local performing arts scene this year.
Soirée Doors Open: 8:00pm
Our biggest party of the year will feature Alice in Wonderland-inspired cocktails and nibbles, a D.J. spinning 1970s realness, magical flash mob/dance-based happenings, guilty pleasure indulgence raffle, silent auction, and live music from Bellingham-based funk and soul band Black Water!
