Nordstrom Gala Helps Museums
Posted by James on October 13th, 2008
The fashionisti at Nordstrom know a lot about retail. Reports are rolling in that they also know a thing or two about how to party. Just a few days ago, Nordstrom reopened at the Tacoma Mall, adding 4,000 square feet to its already-huge retail space. And to celebrate, they threw a gala benefit for the Tacoma Art Museum and the Museum of Glass. Worthy causes, both. And now those two institutions have $85,000 that they didn’t have before. If you weren’t there, you can see how the festivities went by checking out the Weekly Volcano’s Flickr page.

This event was an unexpected night of pure fun. It warms my heart to see this community come together, and for an entity as large as Nordstrom’s to help build up such a special cause as the Arts.
I’m glad you enjoyed the event. Its great to see the fruits that came out of that night!
