On Thursday, July 17 at 5:30 pm, the Friends of St. Avips will present a generous donation to Spiva Center for the Arts, representing the proceeds from this year’s St. Avips Ball. The check presentation will take place in Spiva’s galleries at the Harry M. Cornell Arts & Entertainment Complex.
The idea of St. Avips is simple – 40 women volunteers put on a gala event each year to raise money for Spiva. The St. Avips Ball is one of the region’s most anticipated events, drawing supporters from across the four-state area. Since the first ball in 1963, the event continues to raise significant funding each year, helping Spiva fulfill its mission to celebrate the creative experience and serve as a community catalyst—uniting culture, education, business, and the arts.
