Reservations are due by Monday, April 11, for a girls day out called Hearts 4 the Arts and planned by the Performing Arts League. Set for Thursday, April 14, the event features shopping, food, fashions and other fun at the Chattanooga Choo Choo, 1400 Market St.
Hearts 4 the Arts will open at 11 a.m. with Baubles Boutique, a marketplace in which guests can shop an array of accessories before the luncheon starts at noon in the Imperial Ballroom. The luncheon will be highlighted by a show of fashions from Anna Ball White, Frankie & Julian’s and Yacoubian Tailors, with drawings for door prizes throughout.
The mission of the Performing Arts League is to encourage and advocate for talented youth in visual and performing arts. Funds raised at this and other league programs fund scholarships, grants for music tuition, pay for summer programs and camps. Additionally, the league annually hosts a showcase of local youth talent as well as a vocal competition.
This is the fourth year this luncheon has been held, according to league member Barbie Standefer. However, this is the first year with its new name, Hearts 4 the Arts.
Tickets are $60, and $40 may be considered tax-deductible. To make reservations, call 423-622-2425 or email 4pairsvp@gmail.com.
