Join us on Saturday, January 31st for the Winter Gala!

The Winter Gala is only moments away! This formal evening promises glamor and glitz at the newest most fabulous hotel in town, the Nines, with proceeds benefiting Q Center.

At the VIP level, you will mingle and network with glittery special guests (like Heather Matarazzo), elected officials, and other stars of the evening. Guests of this Green Room cocktail reception will enjoy a full bar, special VIP-only musical performances, flicker book station, “Glitter Bar” and more.

At the Gala level, you will enjoy a crystalline evening with all the evening’s guests. Musical entertainment will be provided by the Pete Petersen Orchestra, Storm Large, and other surprise performers. You will delight in wonderful gourmet desserts, hosted wine and beer, as well as a champagne toast.

As part of the benefit event, a film contest was held in conjunction with the NW Film Center and the Pacific Northwest College of the Arts. Filmmakers were challenged to celebrate Portland in 30 seconds, featuring what’s wild, weird or wonderful about Portland. Films were reviewed by the Gala Committee, and both submitted and winning films will be shown at the event.
