The community are being asked to wear their ‘Hearts and Stars’ on their sleeves, and shine for a fundaiser for Resilient Lismore on September 19.
Organisers say it’s time to dress up for Resilient Lismore’s first formal dinner, themed ‘Hearts and Stars’, at the Lismore Regional Gallery.
Resilient Lismore’s Executive Director, Elly Bird said she is hoping locals will dress up. ‘It’s time to dine and celebrate our strengths, while raising our spirits!’
Glamour, fun, and community connection
The evening promises glamour, fun, and community connection – all while raising funds to support Resilient Lismore’s ongoing recovery and resilience work across the Northern Rivers.
There will be games to play and prizes to win – including a best dressed award!
Events Coordinator, Emma Newman, said, ‘the theme is “Hearts and Stars”, so we’re encouraging guests to wear their hearts on their sleeves and shine like stars.
‘It’s a chance to feel fabulous while supporting something really meaningful.’
The MC for the evening will be funny lady Gabrielle Griffin (GG), and the wonderful Andrea Soler will sing her sultry tunes with guitar.
There will be games and sumptuous catering will be provided by Take Care Cafe, the new cafe at the gallery.
