You are cordially invited to don your favorite derby hat, place your horse bet, and join the North Country Center for the Arts at Jean’s Playhouse for our second annual Kentucky Derby Fundraising Gala, this year at Cannon Mountain! Featuring fantastic food, live music, a “best hat” contest, and both a silent & live auction, all proceeds help us continue to produce live award-winning theatre and arts education.
The event starts at 5:00 PM with a cash bar, light snacks, a grand prize raffle, and of course browsing our silent auction where you will find gift certificates, products, services, and even trips from a wide range of companies, both local to the North Country, the state of NH, and beyond. Next, watch the race and cheer on your favorite horse! Dinner & dessert will proceed along with live music, followed by our Live Auction. Lastly, we will end by announcing the winners of the auction and of course the best hat of the night … because what’s the derby without magnificent hats?
