Kay Meek Performing Hearts

Feb 12, 2004

By Catherine Barr

 

They're halfway there and gaining momentum. The Kay Meek Centre for the Performing Arts held a romantic Valentine's week celebration last Thursday night at West Vancouver's chic Marine Drive restaurant. A $200 ticket to "Performing Hearts" allowed you to sample some sensual wines, nibble on gourmet appies, dance to the live music of Lesismore, or just take in a hand or two of for-fun blackjack. The evening culminated in a salsa dance performance and a spectacular live auction where the lucky bidders left with their very own Kay Meek theatre seat. Now that's a Valentine's gift that says love.


Vancouver's best events and celebrity functions are all archived here. Vancouver pubs, clubs, nightclubs, gala events and fundraisers are included. Thanks for viewing.

Due to server capacity, you will not be able to access or click through to the larger photographs. With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would quickly exceed the amount of memory needed.

If you would like to receive a copy of a photograph, then please send an email and enclose the details of the event, the date, the name, the photo number and the names of the people in the photograph. Also, for security reasons, I prefer not to email copies of pictures to anyone other than the people who are actually in the photo. Thanks.
