“Come join the fun at our annual Hearts 4 the Arts Fashion Show and Luncheon which supports our ongoing mission to provide grants and scholarships to talented young performers and area nonprofit organizations whose programs support and train them," says Greg Miller, PAL President.
"The funds raised at this event help to ensure the future of the arts in our community. Have a grand time enjoying a delightful gourmet meal as our Mistress of Ceremonies, the fabulous Kim Coulter, introduces a bevy of Chattanooga’s outstanding models showing off the latest in holiday fashions from three premier area boutiques: Alice Blue, Antibes, and Yacoubian Tailors. Browse our popular Baubles Boutique and purchase a unique addition to your own jewelry collection. We look forward to seeing you at our Hearts 4 the Arts benefit to support the performing arts and start the festive holiday season!”
Kim Coulter, Co-Chair and Mistress of Ceremonies notes, “I am honored to participate once again in this year’s Hearts 4 the Arts Fashion Show and Luncheon to benefit the Performing Arts League. What I love about this event is that in between every style scene, a student takes the stage to perform. This event is a wonderful fusion of the performing arts and fashion, plus it provides essential funding for our community's artistically talented students.”
