Tour de Force – a Night to Remember The 2015 Design Awards Gala (DAG) Celebration was a huge success! The Design Awards committee, led by Cita Rojas-Sila our new Professional Development Director, pulled off a flawless night. Gourmet food prepared by Riggs Distributing’s chefs, the wonderful music of Jazz pianist Ellen Starr, and amazing silent auction vignettes were the backdrop of the evening’s events. The decorations were beautiful, the gift bags were unforgettable, and the silent auction packages were outstanding! The chapter raised over $4,200 from our silent auction. After a luxe evening hosted by Riggs Distributing in their beautiful showroom, 23 of our chapter’s finest received awards which will be featured in Luxe Magazine’s December issue. The awards ceremony was hosted by CBS celebrity, Liam Mayclem. Liam brought a sense of comedy and playfulness that our audience really enjoyed. His witty humor and British accent were the perfect complement to our program. A big thanks to the DAG committee members, Riggs Distributing, Media Sponsor Luxe Magazine, Entertainment Sponsors: Interiors for Modern Living and Artistic Tile and Stone, and all of our silent auction donors. We couldn’t have done it without all of you!
