EveningFest Brings Black & White Glamour to Meaford Hall

On November 9, EveningFest transformed Meaford Hall into a dazzling showcase of black and white elegance. Hosted by Meaford Downtown, the popular event brought together a vibrant crowd of residents and visitors to celebrate community, creativity, and connection.

One of the night’s highlights was a stunning dance performance by Annie Thompson and her troupe, Buzz 61, who captivated the audience with their expressive and dynamic movements. Generous contributions from Meaford’s local businesses, non-profits, artists, and residents made the event even more memorable.

A silent auction, featuring a range of prizes like original artwork, theatre tickets, and a walking tour of Meaford’s rich history, sparked lively bidding.

The donated prizes were really creative,” said Rita Lee, one of the organizers. “They encourage people to get together and explore all the amazing things we have to offer.”

Proceeds from the evening will directly support Meaford Downtown’s initiatives to enhance the town’s vibrancy and make the downtown core a must-visit destination.

This was a different kind of event, full of music, art, and creative expression of all kinds,” said emcee Tobias Sallewsky. “It was extremely impressive to see everyone decked out in black and white to match our theme…everyone except the one guy in a purple shirt,” he quipped with humour.

EveningFest encapsulates Meaford Downtown’s mission to inject fun and pride into the community. For more information about upcoming events or to support Meaford Downtown, visit www.meaforddowntown.ca.
