AUBURN, CA (MPG) - Celebrate under the summer stars at Cocktails & Cinema, Auburn State Theatre’s annual fundraiser/street party! This year we’re “Dancing for the Ceiling” with proceeds going toward the Theatre Restoration Fund. 

Shimmer and sparkle to the “Glitz & Glitter” theme while toasting the festivities with friends. Dine on tasty treats from local restaurants, starting with a Charcuterie tray curated by Pat & Pete Enochs of “Latitudes” fame. Other fun bites include 3 different skewer snacks (Pork Belly, Shrimp and Caprese), Pork Sliders, Steak on Crostini, Meat Balls, Involtini Zucchini and Fried Chicken with Caviar. Delectable Desserts will be provided by Gina Marie Bakery and The Baker & the Cakemaker. Sip specialty cocktails or local wines and beer while enjoying entertainment by the State Theatre Acting Company (STAC). Enjoy DJ Mark’s selection of favorite hit songs. 

As a special treat, Roper’s Jewelers has generously donated a pair of elegant 14 karat white gold stud earrings set with pink sapphires – valued at $800 – for a drawing.  Everyone attending will receive an entry for a chance to take this prize home! Stay and dance the night away because you need to be present to win.

Participating purveyors of food and drink include Carol's Market & Deli, Crooked Lane Brewing Co., Depoe Bay Coffee Co., Grocery Outlet, Laura Kenny's Real Food Catering, North Fork Deli, Old Town Pizza, Restaurant Josephine, Tavern at the White House, The Pour Choice, The Station Public House and tre Pazzi trattoria.

This year we have raised the bar on fundraising goals for the Theatre Restoration Fund, as we are eager to welcome the community back to enjoy live music, productions by the immensely talented State Theatre Acting Company (STAC), and popular film events at our historic arts and entertainment venue.
