Exceptional Foundation to host new 'Dinnertainment' fundraiser

The Exceptional Foundation is making a change to one of its annual fundraisers. The art show has been a tradition for 10 years, but this year the foundation is trying out something completely new: “Dinnertainment.”

“It’s kind of a unique dinner party that we are hosting,” Event Coordinator Margaret Cochran said.

Donors will have a sit-down dinner and experience a “day in the life” of the entertainment and activities the foundation provides for individuals with special needs. Some of the foundation’s 480 participants will perform skits, songs and dances during the meal, which will be followed by a small silent auction of participants’ artwork and other prizes.

“We just thought we’d change things up a little bit and offer something new to our donors,” Cochran said.

Tickets will be $150, and seating for the dinner is limited. To learn more, visit exceptionalfoundation.org.
