Over 200 people joined us in supporting feminism from the stage up at our 2017 premier fundraising event: Grit & Grace: A Pink Tie Gala on November 3rd at the CLB Amoury in St. John’s, NL.
Featuring a performance by Petrina Bromley of the Tony award winning Broadway smash Come From Away, guests enjoyed a five-course meal prepared by five of Newfoundland’s finest chefs (SEE MENU BELOW).
The evening was a wonderful celebration of the finest contributions from our women – from the stage to the dining tables to the auction tables. Fabulous items were won under the direction of St. John's maestro of the auctioneer's gavel Wayne Bartlett.
The evening kicked off with live entertainment from Play Date - an all-female pop/rock trio consisting of recording artist Joanna Barker, joined by Sarah Harris (Dame Nature/City on the Coast/Property) and Kelly McMichael (Thelma and Louise/Renders/The Gloss).
Later in the evening, Fionn Shea kept the room lively with his fabulous fiddle.
