Be Scene 2.0 – Atlanta Events

Hope Fashion Show
Monday, March 14, 2011, 10:00am
Ritz-Carlton Buckhead

The American Cancer Society’s Auxiliary will proudly host its 20th Annual Hope Fashion Show on Monday, March 14, 2011 at the Ritz-Carlton Buckhead. The Hope Fashion Show is a fascinating and inspirational event dedicated to breast cancer survivors and the memory of those we have lost to this insidious disease.  The event is a major fundraiser for the American Cancer Society’s breast cancer programs of early detection, education, patient services, and research.

We are delighted and honored to once again have Belk at Phipps Plaza as our Fashion Sponsor.  We are fortunate to have their support in the fight against breast cancer.  The Hope Fashion Show has been a sell out of more than 600 people in recent years and has raised almost $1,000,000 for the American Cancer Society over the past 20 years.  We will exceed the Million Dollar mark this year thanks to your generous support!

Ecco, 40 7th Street NE, Atlanta

Join us at Ecco on Wednesday, March 16 at 6:30pm for a super unique tasting event. 

First, we’ll whip up oodles of French fries in the classic pommes frites fashion: fried twice to be extra crispy on the outside and surprisingly light on the inside.

Next, we’ll top them with an enormous helping of creamy, cool crème fraiche and generous dollops of sinful caviar (yes, caviar!).

Finally, we’ll pair these heavenly spuds with five extraordinary sparkling wines from around the world, leaving your taste buds wondering “Why didn’t they bring these lovelies together sooner?”

Enjoy all of this goodness for only $30/person.* We’ll even take 15% off your check if you stay to indulge in dinner.

Reservations are by ticket only and are available online at http://brownpapertickets.com/event/163028.
