Sally Brewer, of Revelers Aerial Works, performs for guests at the Looking Glass gala event at Venue 252 in Eugene, on Saturday, March 7, 2020.
The annual Looking Glass “Looking Forward, Giving Back,” event for 2020 is in the books and by all measures it was a resounding success. The 007-James-Bond-themed event was quite a hit, providing fun for roughly 250 supporters who helped raise crucial funds for Looking Glass at-risk youth & family services.
Highlights of the evening included an ice sculpture drink luge (amazingly done by PDX ICE), ceiling spinning acrobatic performances, live and silent auction and a powerful musical performance by 15-year-old Ellie Williams. Our emcee for the evening was the amazing Mary Reilly of Mix 94.5FM - thank you Mary!
The ice sculpture drink luge was a huge hit! These martinis were shaken and not stirred and then highly chilled as they went down the luge to their glasses!
The evening also included a touching surprise award presentation of the Looking Glass Guiding Light Award presented to Linda McKay Korth, longtime Looking Glass board member and supporter.
