The It! Girls will be rocking around the Christmas tree tonight at the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens! With more than 30 designer Christmas trees, Christmas carolers, a holiday boutique and more, it is just what we need to get us in the holiday spirit here in balmy South Florida — the delicious noshes and open bar during the Gala Opening doesn't hurt, either!
The event benefits the garden's Community Enrichment Program, designed to provide cultural opportunities to all populations through innovative programming incorporating the visual arts, environmental awareness and interpretive history of Ann Weaver Norton.
Family and friends of all ages are invited to the gala, with tickets available for $200 for adults (ANSG members $150) and $25 per child. Gentlemen of the Garden will present Community Days with $10 admission (children $5) Dec. 4 and 5 and Dec. 8-12.
