Vie by Cescaphe is a 600-person capacity venue, including a large outdoor space with covering for inclement weather. We expect there to be about 250 people in attendance. The indoor space includes a wall of doors facing the outdoor space, and those doors will be kept open at all times during the event for enhanced ventilation. Seating for the event will be in socially distanced pods for the duration of the formal program. Food and drink will only be served in the outdoor courtyard so we ask guests to eat and drink only in the outdoor space.

Our 2021 silent auction is now live! You can place bids on exciting and unique items and experiences, like tickets to the Broadway hit “To Kill a Mockingbird,” a round of golf at the beautiful Bala Golf Club, new murals (painted during our event!) from Philadelphia artist Priscilla Bell, and much more. All proceeds from the auction go to support our work taking on discrimination and poverty.

Our program features a performance from the Philadelphia Dance Company PHILADANCO!, a nonprofit organization that presents the highest quality of professional dance performance and cultivates the skills of emerging and professional dancers and choreographers in a nurturing environment, while increasing the appreciation of dance among its many communities.
