Connections: A Web of Togetherness 2023 Gala
Please join Curry Senior Center for an evening of dinner, drinks, and auctions, all while supporting Curry!
Tickets and sponsorships are now available for Curry’s 2023 Gala on Friday, September 29th at 5:30 PM at the InterContinental San Francisco. Connections: A Web of Togetherness is this year’s theme. We will celebrate how our connections have been vital in Curry’s ability to address the digital divide, build the new Tech and Wellness Hub+, and continue to provide essential services to older adults.
This year’s celebration is sure to be full of heartfelt thank yous, laughs provided by emcee Diane Dwyer, and of course, Curry Senior Center’s “joie de vivre” that has made our previous galas so elegant and exciting. Auction items up for bid this year include hotel stays, ziplining, and tickets to Alcatraz! Tickets and further details can be found on the gala website.
