The Paramount Arts Center will host its new fundraising event, the vampire-themed ‘Love at First Bite’ at the Boyd County Convention and Arts Center on Saturday, October 31, 2020.
The new Halloween event promises to be an exciting evening complete with food, drinks, and live music. Guests can choose to participate in cocktail attire or in costume, whichever they prefer, with all proceeds benefitting the operation and preservation of the historic theatre.
‘Love at First Bite’ comes in the wake of the cancellation of the Paramount’s popular Annual Gala this year due to the current COVID-19 restrictions and concern for public safety.
“We want to give our community something to look forward to.” Said Holly Canfield, Executive Director of the Paramount Arts Center.
“We all want to be able to have a safe, fun evening with friends and to support this historic theater. A costumed event seems like a perfect way to celebrate the Performing Arts,” added Canfield.
Ticketing information and other details will be available soon. Sponsorships for the event may be obtained by contacting the Paramount Arts Center directly at 606-324-0007 ext. 306 or by emailing Holly@Paramountartscenter.com.
Constructed in 1931 as the Paramount Theatre and later adapted into a community arts organization, the Paramount Arts Center serves as a sense of identity and purpose for the tristate region. In 2019, the Paramount provided 200,000 individual art experiences to local patrons, educated 61,000 youth across 33 counties in visual and performing arts, and contributed $1.8 million toward the economic well-being of our great city.
Love at First Bite will be a spectacular and unique evening, but more importantly, it is essential to the ongoing success of the Paramount Arts Center and the vitality of our community.
The board of directors, staff and volunteers of the Paramount look forward to seeing you at the premier of this exciting new event.
