From the Valley Arts District:
The organizations that live, work and create in the Valley Arts District of Orange and West Orange have joined together to produce a fundraising gala this Friday, September 16 from 7-10 at the Firehouse Gallery, 580 Forest Street (right down the street from Hat City Kitchen). ValleyArts, Arts in South Orange Maplewood and the Valley, Garden State Kitchens, West Orange Arts Council, Arts Unbound, HANDS Inc, PWI and Luna Stage invite everyone to enjoy a gala “Valley Arts District style”- wonderful live music, art, live art auction, silent auction and a curated “Taste of the Oranges”.
This event is the result of a Community Forum that identified immediate projects that would benefit the Valley Arts District.
