The Junior League of Huntsville held its 4th annual Book Ball on April 9 at the Huntsville Museum of Art

Among the 210 guests were representatives from the recipients of the Community Assistance Grant Awards from AUM Foundation; Cap and Gown Project; Fantasy Playhouse Theater; Girls Inc.; Huntsville Hospital Foundation; Huntsville-Madison County Public Library Foundation; Therapy Partners; UAH Foundation; and Village of Promise.

Attendees dined on fare catered by Bubba’s Silver Spoon, with entertainment provided by Drumb & Drumber and America’s Party Pros.

“We are extremely proud to award these worthy organizations. We chose these nonprofits because they are fulfilling a need in our community tied directly to our League’s focus area of Literacy,” said Kristina Hendrix, League President. “For the past three years, Book Ball has been an evening of glitz and glamour, raising money to support our community projects. We decided to pair our Community Assistance Grant announcements with one of our signature events to allow our members and the community to share in the celebration.” n
