Dress a Table

This year, we invite you to adopt and dress a table.  The creator of the winning table will receive two tickets to next year's Winter Ball.  Tables will be judged by the attendees, using the following criteria:  creativity, elegance, design, interpretation of the theme.  For even more fun, gather a group of people to attend the ball and sit at your table with you!  Download and print the guidelines below for more information.

Tickets are $30/person or $25/person for PCAC members. Call 517 647 6545 for tickets.

Or purchase tickets at Rush Hour Studios or Cheeky Monkeys in downtown Portland.

Did you know it's only $10 to join the PCAC ($20 for a family membership).  Join today and you'll get half your membership fee back just in one ticket to the Winter Ball.  Now that's a great deal!

Live music, silent auction, and a special gift

By popular demand, "Rush Hour" will return this year, along with invitations to local musicians to attend the Ball and jam with the band.  The music is always great at the Winter Ball!

 

Our silent auction gets better every year.  You won't want to miss this fun event.

 

If you attended last year's Winter Ball, you've already started your collection of wine (or pilsner) glasses.  You can add to that collection with this year's gift.  Come early for the best selection!

Plunge was a great success!

A dozen people jumped into a hole cut in the frozen Grand River this year to raise money for PCAC programming.  Thank you, all you brave souls!  We'll have footage and photos soon.
