What a Magical Night!
On behalf of Chance’s Board of Directors, Staff, and Resident Company, we want to take a moment to express our immense gratitude to all of you who made it to Chance Theater’s 2023 Gala, “Once Upon a Chance,” at Mayor Ashleigh Aitken and Michael Penn’s stunning home on October 7th.
Your presence added a special spark to the evening, and we couldn’t have asked for a better crowd. Thanks to your support, the night was filled with laughter, good company, and a whole lot of fun!
We’re so grateful for your generosity, which helps us continue our mission of creating a more compassionate, connected, and creative community.
THANK YOU ALL!
