2016 Gala

On Saturday, April 16th, Providence High School held its annual Gala at Lakeside Golf Club in Burbank. This year’s event celebrated 25 years of the Media Focus Program, which was recently renamed the Cinema Arts Focus Program. Guests enjoyed passed hors d'oeuvres and complimentary martinis while perusing the cocktail auction items, which were displayed in the beautiful garden overlooking the golf course. After the auction closed, guests made their way inside for dinner, a video presentation, and a spirited live auction prior to dancing the rest of the evening away.
