Curtain Call

A Fundraiser for the Scranton Cultural Center

Thursday, April 27th, 2023 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm | Grand Ballroom

Honorary Co-Chairs:
Colleen Bender
Michele Conaboy McGrath
Tickets are $100 per Person | $125 per Patron (Please select the correct ticket type when purchasing)

The Scranton Cultural Center at the Masonic is pleased to announce Curtain Call, a new, project-based fundraiser, designed to support the cost of fabricating and installing a new curtain in our Grand Ballroom.  The current drapery was installed in the early 1990s and was designed and fabricated by MTL Inc., located in Jessup, PA.  We are excited to be working with MTL once again for this project, but substantial funds are needed to complete the design, fabrication and installation as well as upgrades to the operating tracks and mechanisms.  Curtain Call aims to raise these much needed funds with a fun, innovative event hosted in the Grand Ballroom.  Entertainment will be provided by Picture Perfect Band, Daddy-o and the Sax Maniax and Ken McGraw, with a special appearance by the extremely talented young performers of the SCC Youth Theatre Program.  We’ll also host a silent auction while offering a delicious selection of heavy hors d’oeuvres from Constantino’s Catering and a premium open bar.
