Middletown >> The Lake County International Charter School (LCICS) is holding its 8th Annual Live & Give Celebration and Auction on Oct. 22 from 6 to 9:30 p.m. at the Middletown Art Center (MAC).
The old-fashioned, variety show-inspired theme for this year’s event, “Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves,” will feature the live music of Sonoma County band Buck-Thrifty, performances, gypsy fortune tellers, thematic appetizers created by Chic Le Chef Catering, a complimentary first glass of beer or wine, and both silent and live auctions.
“We’ve had some incredibly fun events in past years, and this year’s theme may top them all,” LCICS Director Gwendolyn Maupin-Ahern said. “As a small, public school we rely on the amazing community support to bridge the gap between state funding and the true cost of educating and supporting our children, especially in this year of recovery since the Valley Fire. The Live & Give is our biggest annual fundraiser, and we are always amazed and appreciative of the generosity of local businesses and individuals.”
Attendees must be at least 21 years old, and tickets can be pre-purchased for $20 per person at the LCICS office (15850 Armstrong St. in Middletown), at Chic Le Chef (18983 Hartmann Road in Hidden Valley Lake), online at www.lcics.org or by calling LCICS at (707) 987-3063. Tickets purchased at the door on the evening of the event will be $25 per person. Additional glasses of wine and beer will be available for purchase.
