String Fling Gala 2007

Saturday, September 13, 2008

Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center

This year’s String Fling Gala is a special one – it will celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Center for Puppetry Arts! Guests will be transported back to 1978, the year the Center first opened its doors to the Atlanta community. So dust off those platform boots and that polyester suit, and join us for a far-out evening featuring cocktails, a seated dinner, exciting live and silent auctions, and a unique puppetry performance. It’s groovy!

Each year friends, family and patrons of the Center come together to share in the joy of giving to one of the most unique arts organizations in the world. Funds raised through String Fling help support the educational programs that are enjoyed by every age group from all walks of life. Only with the help of corporate sponsors and generous individuals can the Center continue to bring quality programming and entertainment to thousands of children each year!

Join us for String Fling Gala 2008: Come join us on September 13th in the beautiful Grand Ballroom at the Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center for $175 per person or reserve a table of ten for just $2,500 and get more than just a seat! Opportunities for sponsorships and individual giving are also available. Call Events & Development Manager at 404.881.5118 or email kathrynderryberry@puppet.org for reservations or more information.

We are looking forward to seeing you this year at String Fling!

Thanks to all of our generous donors and sponsors, String Fling 2007 was one of the most successful yet. The event raised over $250,000 to support the Center’s education programs!
