MOCSA – Young at Art Cocktail Party and Auction
MOCSA’s 10th annual Young at Art Cocktail Party and Auction was held at the Uptown Theater. Deanna and Greg Graves were the honorary chairmen, and Melanie Fenske and Kim Harp served as the co-chairmen of the event that featured signature martinis, hors d’oeuvres, silent and live auctions, and a live performance by The Elders. Proceeds support the thousands of area children and families who use MOCSA’s free services every year.
