Blending an evening of fine entertainment with a chance to give back to the local community, the Alzheimer Society of Washington is hosting “An Affair to Remember – Broadway Nights!” on Saturday, February 21, at the Bellwether Ballroom in Bellingham.
The 4th Annual Affair to Remember event is Alzheimer Society of Washington’s largest fundraiser of the year. This year’s event includes a very special performance by Sheryl Lee Ralph, actress (Sister Act 2, The Flintstones, Christmas in Compton), vocalist, and original star of Dreamgirls, the Broadway musical.
Ralph, who was nominated for a Tony Award, also produced the album In the Evening, the title track of which hit #6 on the Billboard Dance Music charts. She is currently starring in the Showtime series Ray Donovan and Nickelodeon’s Instant Mom.
In addition to the concert, Affair to Remember guests will enjoy cocktails, passed hors d’oeuvres, dessert dash, live and silent auctions, and a plated gala dinner with wild salmon, steak, or vegan options. Tickets are $100 in advance and $125 at the door, dress is formal Broadway attire. Corporate sponsorships and auction donation opportunities are available.
The event serves to raise awareness of Alzheimer’s and other dementias and to raise funds to continue supporting Whatcom County residents and their families who are impacted by memory loss.
