In customary fashion, Arts Gala 2014 kicked off with a patriotic show that’s always a crowd pleaser.
Wright State University’s annual ArtsGala offered patrons a night of unparalleled entertainment. Fine and performing arts students displayed their rich talents throughout the Creative Arts Center, and guests were treated to a dizzying array of food and fun.
Attendance was higher than ever before with more than 700 patrons on hand to support student scholarships in theatre, dance, art, music and motion pictures.
The finals numbers aren’t in just yet, but it’s safe to say that in the 15 years the university has hosted the event, over $1.75 million will have been raised for arts students at Wright State.
