Garden Street Academy in Santa Barbara will host a Roaring ’20s-themed fundraising gala and auction at 5 p.m. March 18 at La Cumbre Country Club, 4015 Via Laguna.
Guests are encouraged to wear ’20s-inspired fashion — long pearl necklaces, feather boas, pocket squares and wing-tip shoes — to the annual Gala & Fundraiser.
The event will include dinner, cocktails, silent and live auctions, live music by The Goldfingers, and gambling tables hosted by Aces and Eights.
The fundraiser also features an online auction which will launch March 1 and runs through March 18. The online auction features more than 125 items.
Auction highlights includes some 25 restaurant gift cards, three-month memberships to the Santa Barbara Tennis Club, and certificates to various local summer camps and museums. All proceeds support tuition assistance at Garden Street Academy.
Auction chair Ana Ojeda said, “The Roaring ’20s Gala will be the bees’ knees; we are excited to have our sponsors, parents and staff come together for a common goal: to raise funds for Garden Street Academy and to ensure that each student gets the very best education.”
