Lobero Theatre Associates Hold Festive Holiday Tea

On Wednesday, December 7, the Lobero Theatre Associates held a lovely Holiday Tea at the Four Seasons Biltmore. This annual event allows Associates to introduce friends to the organization and collect toys for CALM, (Child Abuse Listening Meditation).

There were about 75 in attendance, including some Lobero Theatre board members and staff. Co-chairs Mindy Denson and Emily Johnson welcomed the group and lead a short program, but most of the afternoon was dedicated to socializing. The Biltmore outdid itself with a wide assortment of sweets, including warm scones and chocolate profiteroles. Holiday decorations were at every turn and Fredrik Rosvall played delightful piano music. A large table was overflowing with donated toys for CALM.

Founded in 1972, the Lobero Theatre Associates has raised more than $1 million in support of the theater. The Associates provide major ongoing support for the Lobero’s youth programs. They have also funded the renovation of the Courtyard, the purchase of the Steinway grand piano, and the acquisition of a new ticketing system. This year, the Associates are raising funds for a roof repair project.
