State of the Art: Your Weekly Guide to LA’s Latino Art Openings

El Gran Baile de Cinco Auction – Gilmore Adobe

If the beginning of May has you feeling philanthropic, why not do good while attending a swank soiree? For the 17th year, El Gran Baile de Cinco lets you do just that. You can purchase a ticket – at $150 each – to support the nonprofit Para Los Niños, an organization here in LA. The center fosters children’s creativity through music, art and more, while preparing them for an education that will lead to a better future. The event will take place Friday, May 3 from 6:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. in the gardens of the historic Gilmore Adobe. Enjoy cocktails, students’ art and a silent auction all while knowing you did your part to give back.
