Small Friends will hold our second Annual Spring Down the House dinner and dance on Daffodil Weekend, 2008. Last year's event to kick off our Capital Campaign was a huge success. A delicious dinner at the Chanticleer will be followed by dessert and dancing at the Sconset Casino. The event helps us raise significant money for our new building as well as raise exposure about our campaign. Small Friends will make this fun event an annual part of the island's daffodil celebrations.
Please contact Gabrielle Gould at Gabschuster@aol.com for information about this year's event.

Small Friends Annual Folk Art Show, "The Event Under the Tent" takes place in July and is the program's biggest fund raiser of the year. The money we raise at the Preview Party and the Event itself help keep tuition affordable for our families and help off set the operating costs of the program.
It is a juried show featuring over fifty artists and artisans from across the country, with everything from baskets and textiles to handcrafted jewelry and furniture for sale. The Preview Party is a wonderful opportunity to meet the artists, have first pick of their beautiful wares, and enjoy a cocktail with friends while supporting Small Friends
