Gustavus Library Associates presents its 17th biennial benefit gala Shine…A Royal Affair on Saturday, Nov. 14, at the Minneapolis Convention Center in Minneapolis. Join us for this glamorous evening filled with tradition, entertainment, and dining in the company of many fellow friends of Gustavus while supporting the Folke Bernadotte Memorial Library. This year, current Gustavus students and alumni will be providing all of the evening entertainment. To order tickets, please go online or call the Office of Marketing and Communication at 507-933-7550. Even if you cannot join us, you can still help with this fundraiser as A Royal Affair will once again offer an advance online auction. It’s a great way to get a start on your holiday shopping while supporting Gustavus’s library. Items may be viewed beginning on Nov. 5 at gustavus.edu/gla where you will also find detailed instructions for bidding. Bidding will open on Nov. 5 and close on Nov. 12. These items are exclusive to the online auction and will not be available for bidding at A Royal Affair.
