The Gala May Be Sold Out… But the Bidding Has Just Begun
Saturday, May 16, celebrates our Annual Gala: The Night of Many Colors. And while seats for the event disappeared fast, there’s still a way to join the fun and support local professional theatre in Hampton Roads.
Our online silent auction is officially open, and trust us, there are some seriously tempting items waiting for bids.
We’re talking:
A curated wine night from Pendulum Fine Meats
A day of golf for four at Cedar Point Club
A behind-the-scenes all-access experience at Virginia Zoo
A cozy gift basket from Norfolk Candle
A tarot reading with The Velvet Witch
And plenty more experiences, local favorites, and one-of-a-kind finds
Whether you’re looking to treat yourself, plan a memorable night out, or finally win the silent auction item you’ve been eyeing all week, every bid helps support the work we do on and off the stage.
Your participation helps make possible:
Professional theatre productions right here in Hampton Roads
Education and student matinee programs
Community engagement initiatives
Affordable access programs that welcome new audiences into the Wells Theatre
Opportunities for local artists, actors, designers, and creatives
The best part? You do not need to attend the Gala to bid and win.
So even if you won’t be in the room Saturday night, you can still be part of The Night of Many Colors from your couch, your favorite coffee shop, or wherever your competitive bidding spirit strikes.
But don’t wait too long. Some items are already attracting attention, and once the bidding closes, it’s game over.
