Red Tie Soirée
Saturday, February 8, 2020
Evanston Art Center
Thank you to everyone who attended and supported our Red Tie Soirée on February 8th. It was a wonderful celebration of community and leadership. We raised a record amount of money, close to$50,000!
JoAnn Avery, Program Coordinator at Family Focus in Evanston, was presented the 2020 Buddy Portugal Award, in recognition of her outstanding contributions to the Evanston's youth.
This beautiful painting was created during the 2020 Red Tie Soirée by Phill Ferguson.
Check out the video below that was created by three Justin Wynn Award recipients: Lily Ng (2012), Kaila Holland (2012), and Alex Johnson (2013). Their video premiered the night of the 2019 Red Tie Soirée.
