North Fork Community Theatre's Gala To Be Held Outside This Year

MATTITUCK, NY — Keeping pandemic protocols in mind, the North Fork Community Theatre's 13th Annual Building on Tradition Campaign Gala will be presented as an outdoor live Concert By The Bay this year.

"This has been a difficult year for many, and we hope that the theatre's online and outdoor performances have brought you some parks of joy," Mary Motto Kalich of NFCT said. "We're so happy to be performing for you."

With an eye toward social distancing, the event will take place in two sessions, at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. on June 12 at Veterans Memorial Park, located at the corner of Peconic Bay Boulevard and Bay Avenue in Mattituck. Tables for groups of four or more people can be reserved.

In addition, individually packaged gourmet food will be provided while guests listen to the tunes of Spicy Tuna and performances by members of the theatre.

Each of the sessions will include raffles for gift baskets, door prizes, and opportunities to write in a silent bid in the auction. There will also be two live auction items, a stand-up paddleboard and a pair of Adirondack chairs painted by local renowned artists Alan Bull and Kara Hoblin.

"We hope you will join us," Kalich said. "If you are unable to attend in person, please consider making a donation to the NFCT to support live theater in our community."
