In our 4th year of this annual spring tradition, we invite you to join us in celebration of Kirkbride Elementary at A Night Out 2019! Supporters, neighbors, teachers, and parents will gather for an evening of local food, cocktails, raffle baskets, and an awesome live and silent auction.
Support from our previous three events directly led to the completion of phase 1 of our playground project in Summer 2018, and now we're keeping it moving for phase 2 to add more equipment for our students in the schoolyard.
The event will be held at The Workshop at Bok, just blocks away from Kirkbride School in South Philadelphia. The evening will include a performance from the Kirkbride Orchestra, and guests will bid on great auction items including event tickets, exclusive dining opportunities, artwork and more.
Tickets are on sale for $30 in advance online and $40 at the door. We also welcome you to sponsor a Kirkbride teacher to attend for $30. We invite parents of current Kirkbride students to attend with a $10 ticket.
