THE RED HOOK PROM

Fasten your corsage, put on your dancing shoes, and come celebrate the start of summer and show Red Hook the love (and party) it deserves. On Saturday, May 3 at 7pm, Red Hook, Brooklyn is having a prom like you've never seen. Come to South Brooklyn Community High School at 173 Conover Street, walk up to the gym and help us celebrate this amazing neighborhood.

The event, produced by Pete Ascolese/Hope & Anchor(a restaurant and catering company), features delicious food, punch (spiked, just like we remember), a DJ spinning 80's jams and requests, the knighting of Prom King and Queen- nominations are local celebrities, and many more surprises!!!

In addition to performances, the evening will include a silent auction, with beginning bids ranging from $5 up to several hundred. Last years' silent auction included tickets to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, spa packages, classes for kids and adults, vacation packages to the Berkshires and Disneyworld, and much much more!

The Red Hook Prom is the annual gala benefiting Cora Dance, a vital arts organization keeping Red Hook strong. We hope you will join us. All the proceeds of the evening go to support our 6 days a week of pay-what-you-can dance classes for ages 4 to 94+, as well as supporting the development of Red Hook's first studio theater where the community can see our work, the work of other community artists and beyond."

So doubleknot your scrunchie, tighten your bowtie, and help us celebrate the start of summer with a classy affair!

Tickets are $100 or pay-what-you-can (suggested minimum: $20) and are available below at sliding scale prices.
