The Coral Gables Art Cinema’s third annual fundraiser, A Night at Our Cabaret, takes place on Saturday, February 1, 2014, starting at 7:00 pm, at The Westin Colonnade on Aragon Avenue, one block east of the theater. Hosted by CBS4 anchor Eliott Rodriguez, A Night at Our Cabaret will feature delicious food, an open bar courtesy of Bacardi, music, performances, a silent auction, and other surprises. The goal of the evening is to raise funds so that this non-profit organization can continue to operate as the leading first-run art cinema and film arts center in South Florida. Steven Krams will also be recognized for his years of leadership as Founder and President of the Coral Gables Art Cinema.
The Coral Gables Art Cinema exhibits independent, international, and classic films, offering first-run, seven-day-a-week showcase presentations in both 35mm and true industry-standard theater quality digital projection. Cinema programs also include special events for families and children, film festivals and educational activities. It is located at 260 Aragon Avenue, across the street from Books & Books and the Coral Gables Museum, which is at 285 Aragon Avenue.
“We are so proud of the continued success of the Gables Cinema,” said Director Robert Rosenberg. “Our Cabaret fundraiser will help us to continue to grow and deepen our programs, with key community support.” A Night at Our Cabaret is expected to attract over 200 attendees who will come together in support of the film programming and educational activities of the Gables Cinema.
“A Night at Our Cabaret will be our biggest, most glamorous and fun annual fundraiser ever,” said Board Member and Event Chair of the Coral Gables Art Cinema Maritza Jacobson. “It’s an homage to both the film world and the arts community of South Florida.” Tickets for the event are $250 per person and are available for purchase at www.gablescinema.com or by calling (786) 472-2249.
Supporters for the evening include Bacardi, Continental Film & Digital Labs, FOX International Channels/Nat Geo Mundo, HBO Latin America, and Magna-Tech Electronic Co., Inc.
