I'm a part of The Helping Hips organization that is putting this gala together. Feel free to ask me any questions regarding this event.

One more note-This charity helps families with the out-of-pocket costs that insurance does not cover.

Sounds like a wonderful event. I wish you the best of luck:)

Thanks AmiraStar! I think it will be pretty successful. Tickets sales has been going very well. Also tickets sales have been extended to Nov. 12th.

I can't go (will be in NJ that night), but I would HIGHLY recommend this event. Ancient Art Studios puts on some of the best-run shows in New England, and the dancer lineup is AMAZING. You will see some really fine dancing.

That sounds wonderful! I live in WI but I wish you all the best!

Amareba, a fine trio, has joined forces with this event to create even more ambience!

Amareba is a group composed of Khaleel Hallal (oud-vox), who has played in New York City for years for Bobby Farrah, Elena Lentini and more. He also brings Khaleel Murrah (arabic mandolin) and Tanous Elhilow (dumbek-def). Each are masters and we are honored to have them.

Be there by 6:30 to savor their opening set. Amereba will also play during intermissions. Dance a little, why don't you?

Thank you to Amereba!

Also tickets sales have been extended to Nov. 12th.
