Artful Living

“Artful living is best accomplished when we surround ourselves with art, beauty and design that awakens our senses and enriches our lives.”

This is Ballet Idaho’s annual elegant gala fundraiser that includes live, silent and “reverse” auctions where proceeds contribute to our annual operations and the Create the Classics campaign.

For our April 2008 event, board members Jane Cliff and Dana Grinnell co-chaired the season’s gala evening, which was held for the third year at The Grove Hotel. Creative table captains hosted and decorated their own unique dinner tables, where guests indulged in a delicious meal in a stylish and classy “artful” atmosphere. We unveiled the new season and announced upcoming changes and the Smooth Old Fashioned High dance band played into the evening and rounded out the occasion.

We wish to thank all the volunteers and donors who contributed to the success of this event. Special kudos go to our table hostesses and hosts and also to the creative table decorators:
