About Our Event

Take a walk through 100 years of cinema classics as you dance the night away at our Cinema Through the Century Gala!  An evening of excitement will take place on Saturday, April 26, 2025, beginning at 6:00 P.M. at the Westmoreland Club in Wilkes-Barre.  The evening will include a three-course plated dinner, dancing and entertainment, a silent auction, a cash-only cork pull, and so much more!  

All proceeds will go to the Luzerne County Child Advocacy Center.

Support a Child in Your Community

Support a Child in Your Community

The Luzerne County Child Advocacy Center provides services to over 500 abused children each year who disclose sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, drug endangerment, human trafficking, and are witnesses to major crimes such as homicides.  Our annual gala is our largest fundraiser which ensures that the services we provide will always be free to each child and family in need in our community.  All ticket sales and proceeds from the evening will go directly to providing forensic interviews, medical examinations and evidence collection, as well as child and family advocacy services at no cost to any child who discloses any form of abuse.
