Hey neighbors! We’re hosting a Second Chance Prom- “A Walk in the Clouds”! This will be a 21+, LGBTQIA+ friendly/inclusive event for couples and friends to (re)live the magic of prom night. Link to buy tickets is below! 👇
Whether you missed your first prom, weren’t quite yourself, weren’t with the date of your dreams, or just loved it so much you want to do it again, this is your chance to get dressed to the nines, and dance the night away to a live band. We’ll even have spiked punch — at the cash bar.
Aged 21+ and includes a cash bar. Please plan accordingly. (Sorry, young ones — y’all just had your First Chance Prom!)
Dress code is black-tie optional — we’d love to see you all dressed up, but suits and cocktail dresses will dazzle just as well as a tux or ball gown.
Photos are included with your ticket and will be available immediately.
Need help with tickets? We need help with all sorts of things! For every two hours of volunteering, you’ll score a free ticket. Reach out for more info on available opportunities and/or to sign up.
