Raise a Glass is an evening of merriment to celebrate The Colonial’s programming, mission, and historic preservation efforts. Light refreshments will be served and this annual fundraiser will feature a silent auction and private film screening. New this year, we will also have a number of fun raffle games and prizes!
This year, we are celebrating 110 years of The Colonial Theatre with a “Golden Age of Cinema” theme. Wear your Old Hollywood best (whatever that means for you) and join us on the red carpet!
The evening will feature a private screening of the 75th Anniversary Classic dark comedy film Sunset Boulevard starring Gloria Swanson, William Holden & Erich von Stroheim. Often among the best American films ever made thanks to its brilliant storytelling, stunning cinematography, and iconic performances, and milestone score, Sunset Boulevard is a perfect way to dive into Old Hollywood, acclaimed by Time Magazine as “Hollywood at its worst told by Hollywood at its best.”
Tickets are $50 for admission, with the option to pre-purchase raffle tickets to use for item raffles and games at the event. Raffle tickets may also be purchased on-site, though pre-purchasing will save time.
