The Junior League of Louisville (JLL) will host its fourth annual fundraising event, Two of a Kind, on February 20, 2010, at the newly renovated Gillespie in downtown Louisville.

The theme for this year’s event will be “A New York State of Mind” and attendees will feel they’ve stepped off of the Louisville streets and straight into New York City. Throughout the event, there will be New York-inspired food stations from Little Italy, Chinatown, Coney Island, Times Square and more. Guests will get to test their luck with live and silent auctions and action packed casino games, while enjoying a live DJ. There will also be New York-themed cocktails and a Central Park style coffee bar with warm roasted nuts and pretzels to make the evening complete.

Two of a Kind will be held from 7 p.m. to midnight. Tickets for the event can be purchased online by visiting www.juniorleaguelouisville.org. Individual tickets are $100 each and late night tickets for admission after 9:30 p.m. are $60, while a VIP table of 10 can be purchased for $1200.

Proceeds from Two of a Kind will help feed our community — the event benefits the Junior League of Louisville’s Urban Garden and community service projects, with a special grant going to Blessings in a Backpack. Last year alone, over 550 JLL members contributed more than 13,300 volunteer hours and impacted over 2,800 lives in the Louisville community. During the past decade, JLL has invested more than $1 million in community projects and leadership development.
