Delaplaine and Fancy Gala



First and foremost, thank you to all those who came out this past weekend to support our 10-year anniversary Spring Performance! A few photos of our performance are posted on facebook, and more to come here in the next week or two!

Second, if you missed our Spring Performance (or just want to see more great dancing) AND want a chance to support the local Frederick Arts community, please attend the Delaplaine and Fancy Gala this Saturday, April 28 from 6:30-11:00 pm at The Delaplaine Visual Arts Center!

The DelaPLAINe & Fancy Gala is a great way to support the arts. The event features fabulous food, awesome entertainment, and an open bar all evening. Continuous musical performances from award-winning bluegrass to heart-thumping dance numbers will keep you entertained throughout the evening. And, of course, some guest performances by members of Equinox will be there too! This year’s silent auction features stunning works of art by Beth Carey, Colleen Clapp, Ed Ramsburg, Gary Schlappal, and Robert Sibbison. All proceeds support programming at the Delaplaine.

Both plain or fancy attire encouraged! Tickets are available via The Delaplaine. We hope to see you there!
