MANHATTAN — The second annual Holiday Gala and Auction will take place at 6 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 9, at McCain Auditorium to support the McCain Performance Series. Tickets are on sale now.
The event, hosted by the Friends of McCain Auditorium, raises funds for The McCain Performance Series and its educational programs, which are completely funded through donations, ticket sales and event sponsorships. These programs receive no funding through the university or the state of Kansas.
The McCain Holiday Auction and Gala opens with a reception in the new Jack and Joann Goldstein Grand Lobby with an open bar and delicious food.
Attendees can bid on unique silent auction items while enjoying performances by local artists, experience spectacular live stage performances in the theatre while live-bidding on incredible trips and other exclusive experiences — many of which are only available at the McCain auction — and dance the night away to the upbeat music of Aye Oh!, one of Manhattan's favorite local bands.
Tickets are $125 per person and are on sale now. McCain is still accepting sponsorships and donation items. Call the McCain office at 785-532-6425 for more information.
