Thanks to the generosity of Steve & Page Gesualdo, this Huntington guitar is being raffled to raise funds for ongoing theatre renovations. 🏬 While we’ve made great progress, there’s still plenty to tackle, including roof replacement, brick repairs, and marquee upgrades.

Visit https://gloriatheatre.org/tickets to grab your tickets 🎟️🎫for a chance to win this one-of-a-kind prize you’ll be proud to show off! Tickets may also be purchased at the theatre during open hours.

The drawing will happen at the end of intermission during the “Sail On: Beach Boys Tribute” concert on Saturday, June 20. (You don’t have to be present to win but be sure your contact details are complete.)
