Holiday Prelude XXXI
For 31 years, women have gathered in early December to kick off the holidays with a festive lunch to support three arts groups: Phoenix Theatre Guild, Phoenix Art Museum League and Phoenix Youth Symphony.
Holiday Prelude XXXI Luncheon and Fashion Show at JW Marriott Scottsdale Camelback Inn continued that tradition with a dazzling array of boutiques that offered everything from home-baked goodies to designer handbags. The shopping frenzy was followed by lunch, raffle prize-drawing and a runway show that showcased beautiful fashions by designers Lourdes Chavez and Ella Zahlan.
Krystle Henderson of 12 News emceed the luncheon, and Debe Harvey chaired the event, with co-chairs Dora Kolkhorst, Pat MacGillivray and Judy Peel and a dedicated committee.
Planning has begun for Holiday Prelude XXXII, which will be held Dec. 1, 2017.
