Incredible raffle giveaways will include a first-class experience to San Francisco to see Don Quixote, as well as dinner and tickets to Pilobolus at The Irvine Barclay, and premium tickets to LA Lakers game and dinner at Staples Center Lexus Club.
Black Starr & Frost will donate 10% off all purchases at the event to Maple Youth Ballet. Each guest will receive a swag gift bag valued at more than $100, including women’s perfume or men’s cologne by Black Starr & Frost Jewelers and a ticket to see Maple Youth Ballet's Coppelia at the Irvine Barclay Theatre on April 14 and 15.
The Maple Conservatory in Irvine is a nationally recognized classical ballet studio that trains children of all ages. Many students go on to dance in major companies around the world.
