Dinner & Dancing


Celebrate ADF’s 75th Anniversary with friends!
The ADF invites you to host or attend a Dinner and Dancing Gala event this summer in order to raise money for the ADF Scholarship Fund. You have three opportunities to participate in this unique Gala! Each evening will begin with a delicious dinner hosted by an ADF supporter followed by an ADF performance on Duke University’s West Campus.

Each Dinner and Dancing Gala ticket is $75. If you have already have a performance ticket, you can purchase a dinner-only Gala ticket for $40. Both tickets include a complimentary copy of Dinner & Dancing: The ADF Guide to Culinary Choreography.

All hosts and attendees will receive exclusive priority seating for ADF performances at the
Durham Performing Arts Center in 2009!

Pick one (or more!) of the following evenings:
