SATURDAY, APRIL 26, 2025

5:30 - 8:30 pm, The Halcyon Hotel in Cherry Creek, 245 Columbine Street, Denver

The SILENT AUCTION is open to everyone. 

Our theme, "Why We Travel," celebrates the magic and meaning behind every journey. It captures the thrill of stepping into the unknown, the joy of uncovering hidden gems, and the wonder of history coming to life. It’s about those unexpected moments—the surprises and the shared humanity that make travel transformative. Join us.

TICKETS:

$160 Individual; $150 alum + teachers/admin; $1500; Table of 10 (no price increase from last year)

ATTIRE:

Evening Festive (black tie optional); use BLUE as a color focus (it signifies community + optimism)

PARKING

The Cherry Creek neighborhood can get crowded, so we encourage you to use UBER/Lyft. However, we have made valet parking arrangements as well.  Please purchase a parking ticket if you plan to drive and use valet parking.

ACCESSIBILITY:

The hotel entrance has a ramp, and the elevator to the second floor is just inside the entryway.
