The Society Soiree: Step Back in Time

April 26, 2018 @ 4:30 pm - 9:00 pm

$130 – $250

Join fellow animal lovers for a unique experience of stepping back in time to 1888, the year of our founding! Vintage clothing, cocktails, parlour games, dancing, and music will be paired with fabulous food and an amazing live auction.

 

Held at the historic Temple Theatre on Thursday, April 26, guests can partake in a VIP Experience starting at 5:30 pm. VIP perks include:

 

  • Admission to pre-party cocktail hour
  • Express Registration
  • Dedicated VIP area bartender
  • Open bar all evening with featured vintage cocktails
  • Fast pass to activities including:
    * Cuddle Corners: interact with some of our rescued fur babies; thanks Positive Approach and The Itty Bitty Kitty Committee!
    * Psychic Area: readings of your palm or taro
    * Parlour Game: Faro card game demo and play
    * Mud Bay Photo Booth: complimentary vintage-themed photos

 

The main event commences at 6:30 pm for all other guests. Enjoy champagne, cocktails, and hors-d’oeuvres and get to know some of our adoptable animals — rabbits, kittens, and puppies! See what the future holds in our Psychic Area and win treats for your pup at the Faro table.

 

In the spirit of the era, we will be holding a Victorian Dance Demonstration at 7:00 pm. KIRO 7’s Tracy Taylor is our illustrious emcee and will call guests to dinner at 7:30 pm, where they will indulge in tantalizing vegan Saffron Risotto, Cedar Plank Salmon, or Braised Beef Short Ribs.

 

Eight o’ clock marks the start of the Live Auction with a rousing Raise Your Paddle. All proceeds raised will support the more than 11,000 pets in transition served by the Humane Society each year.

 

Desserts, live music presented by Columbia Bank, and dancing will round out the enchanting evening.
