This year we will be breaking from the tradition of a dinner/show format to host a most exciting evening of elegant hors d’oeuvres, cocktails and an opportunity to bid on a number of extraordinary items in both a silent and live auction. All proceeds will go to the Pitt-Bradford Arts Endowment Fund, which was established to enable the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford to bring fine and performing arts programming to our campus and the community.
Your support of the Pitt-Bradford Arts Endowment will enhance our ability to bring high quality arts programming such as the recently sold out performance of the Russian National Ballet’s The Sleeping Beauty and the New Horizons Student Matinee Series for K-12 students. We provided over two dozen events this past year in the 500 seat Bromeley Family Theater and the KOA Art Gallery. Needless to say, it will be difficult to continue such high quality art programming without strengthening the Arts Endowment at Pitt-Bradford.
Thank you for your support of the Arts at Pitt-Bradford. We hope you will be able to join us for an enjoyable and memorable evening that will include many surprises along with numerous fine auction items.
Mr. John Levey, our new Assistant Professor of Music, will make his Bradford debut as he has graciously agreed to provide musical entertainment while Dr. Martie Geiger-Ho will share her exceptional talents as she creates a special piece of art during the event that in the end will be auctioned off.
You can preview some of our AUCTION PACKAGES online. Online bidding is now closed.
Additional items will be available at the auction. Please attend the auction to have a chance to bid on all of our packages.
