WHY: This annual fundraiser benefits Powerful Schools, a nationally recognized nonprofit based in Southeast Seattle that helps level the playing field for students in some of the city's most economically challenged public elementary schools. Learn more: www.powerfulschools.org.

WHAT: Kick off spring by joining us for a ROLLICKING night of music, cirque performers, delicious food & drink (including local favorite, Marination Mobile), and a well-stocked silent auction & raffle all to support a great cause! Venture into the brand new (and totally hip) Georgetown Ballroom for an extraordinary evening that will be sure to impress.

THE GOODS: Among the many auction items up for grabs are: a gourmet Paella party for 8, a private Theo chocolate tasting & behind-the-scenes tour, a custom-made artisan cake for your special occasion, a 2-hour closet consult with a personal stylist, and a sushi-making class and dinner!

TICKET PRICES: Advance tickets - $40 per person. At the door - $50 per person. Ticket price includes food by Marination Mobile as well as beer, wine & our signature cocktail.

LOCATION: For those who have attended in the past, you don't want to miss our new location. The Georgetown Ballroom is a knock out and we are thrilled to have our event there this year! (see pics at www.georgetownballroom.com)

DRESS: Dress to impress (without stress)! It's Seattle, so come as you are if you must, but we are taking cues from our theme and going with something a little more theatric than the day to day. Anything goes!

FINE PRINT: If you are buying tickets for others and don't want them included on the same silent auction bid number as you at the event (i.e. you don't want to pay for purchases at the event together), be sure to list their names separately when purchasing your tickets.

GET INVOLVED: Want do do more for Powerful Schools than just attending the event? We are looking for event sponsors, in-kind donations, and awesome silent auction items from local artisans and businesses! Contact us at guild@powerfulschools.org if you'd like to help out!

Put on entirely by volunteers from the Powerful Schools Guild, 100% of proceeds from this event go into Powerful Schools' award winning programming and services. Giving back was never so much fun!

NOTE: No one under 21 years old will be admitted.
