As usual, May and June are very busy months for us at the Steveston Cookie Company! But we're here now, and ready to tell you about a fantastic event that we sponsored and attended last week at the Gateway Theatre. Notice our logo to the left there on the poster between Starbucks and Tapenade Bistro??? That was an exciting moment for us, and only the start of a wonderful evening.
The Gateway Theatre secured donations from about 100 artists, each piece appraised at at least $300. With your ticket of $350 per couple, you were able to enjoy an evening of delicious food from many amazing restaurants (you HAVE to go find "Nooch", a restaurant tucked away in the business district around Ikea... worth seeking out for yumtastic, nutritious delights), desserts from Anna's Cake House (and us!), a martini bar, and wines from several different wineries. Oh, and the best part: Each couple got to take home a piece of art at the end of the night!
There were clowns, live music, and champagne on the red carpet...
Stunning art, to take home...
Chefs bustling about making tasty treats from The Apron, Tapenade Bistro, The Point, and Nooch...
And cookies!!!!!!!!
The night was a success for the Gateway Theatre and will now be an annual event... and you'd better watch out for it because next year the tickets are going to go fast! In the meantime, you can tide yourself over with theatre productions from the Gateway's 2011-2012 lineup... looks like it will be a great year of theatre. You can shush me when I'm singing along quietly at the Sound of Music in December... Do re mi fa so la ti dooooo!!!!!
