Roll Up Your Sleeves
A Denim Un-Gala Fundraiser
Saturday, April 15th 2023, 7-10 PM
The Custom House
We invite our friends and allies to put their jeans on in honour of the favored fabric of workers and the working classes across space and time. Dress down and show up for a delightful night of denim and entertainment at the Custom House on Saturday, April 15th from 7-10 pm.
Tour WAHC’s current exhibitions including The People United, All Together Now, and In Our Hands. Get a behind-the-scenes tour of some of WAHC’s precious permanent collection of labour history objects.
Musical entertainment will be provided by folk-soul-jazz artist Janice Jo Lee, and snacks and beverages from beloved local businesses and breweries will be provided.
Guests will be invited to sew and stitch with textile artist Leah Abaza, who will inspire and assist them in crafting denim accessories or decorating the garments they walked in with. All attendees will receive a limited-edition embroidered patch honouring all working people.
Tickets for this one-of-a-kind event are $40 per person and all proceeds benefit WAHC and our important work preserving and celebrating working people’s art, culture, and history. Each ticket includes a complimentary drink ticket and a themed swag bag!
