Join us as we light up the night in support of Easterseals! One of the most unique and exciting events of the year, Festival offers an evening filled with holiday cheer, fabulous food, spectacular entertainment, and both silent and live auctions.
“Gathering with our people – as the disability community, as St. Louisans, as families and friends – is what we all want during the holidays. It helps us focus on the joys of our shared experiences and the unique gifts each of us offers,” says Festival Chair Ashley Koplar. “The Festival Gala allows us to celebrate this special time of the year while supporting Easterseals’ work to offer limitless possibilities for people of all abilities.”
Since its inception in 1983, the Festival Gala and Auction has become a beloved holiday tradition, marking the beginning of the season and supporting the vital work of Easterseals Midwest. Tickets are on sale and the public is invited to attend.
“The Festival Gala raises funds to provide supports to people with autism, which is a growing population,” said Wendy Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer of Easterseals Midwest. “We’ve raised over $12 million dollars over the past 40 years, and look forward to again celebrating the generosity of our friends and family during the holiday season.”Ticket sales begin August 1, 2024 and are expected to sell out quickly. They are sold as individual passes or party-of-10 packages.
