Gilbert Gottfried at Vancouver Funny Bone, Mask-4-Aids, and Pret-a-Pour-Tea

Oct 14, 2006

By Catherine Barr

 

It was time for tea at Hycroft house last Wednesday where the Pret-a-Pour-Tea event helped raise money for breast cancer. A little comedy at Vancouver's newest club followed over the weekend at Vancouver's Funny Bone in the Edgewater Casino at the Plaza of Nations. And finally, in preparation for Halloween, the Mask-4-Aids Charity Masquerade Ball on Saturday Night gave guests at the Four Season quite a fancy fright.

Local artists created one-of-a-kind masks which were on display at various galleries prior to the Mask-4-Aids Event. Winning bidders, like Randy Johnstone, then got the chance to wear them to the gala.
