The Whole Person – Gatsby Gala Night of Independence
The Abbott will be the site of The Whole Person’s Gatsby Gala Night of Independence on September 26th.

Honorees will be individuals, businesses, and organizations that are working to further The Whole Person’s mission to assist people with disabilities to live independently. A La Mode will entertain, and the fun includes dance lessons, a “Prohibition Alley” liquor pull, a vintage 1920’s car photo booth, and divine refreshments.
