On Saturday, Oct. 22, a cocktail reception will be held at the center from 7 p.m. to midnight. Dinner will be served, music and dancing will take place along with both silent and live auctions, according to Workhouse spokeswoman Camela Speer.

The event is by invitation only, but guests will be able to see some of the Workhouse’s newest attractions like the Youth Arts Center, Workhouse Theatre and glass hot shop.
