October 2, 2010 at 6:30 p.m. The Social Event of the Year! 
The Works’ Hats Off event is a fabulously fun, adult only, bi-annual black tie fund-raiser! Always accompanied by a theme for the evening, this year’s theme is a “
Venetian Holiday”! This special evening includes a silent auction of amazing items provided by local businesses and private donors along with “chance drawings” throughout the night. Artisans will also be on hand to demonstrate and donate their beautiful works of art. Join us for an evening of gondolas, beautiful music, delicious food and everything else that is Venice!

A few of these locations include the Franklin Park Conservatory, the Decorative Arts Center, as well as three exhibitions with David Findlay Galleries in New York.
