Fall Feast Spreads Thanksgiving Cheer

Thank you to all the volunteers who signed up for Fall Feast! The event was a huge success, with 2,800 meals served and an additional 1,200 meals delivered to shut-ins throughout the city. Highlights included a petting zoo, photo booth, haircuts, vision screenings and a coat drive that saw approximately 1,500 coats collected. Our sponsors -- The Kroger Co., Duke Energy Center and many more -- helped us pull the whole thing off.  Did you miss the event? Click here to read a great story from WCPO-TV!

 

 

GBC Night at The Know

This holiday season, Know Theater will present A Wrinkle in Time, based on the popular children's novel by Madeleine L'Engle. It was a dark and stormy night... Meg and her brother Charles Wallace encounter the strange Mrs. Whasit and her friends, Mrs. Which and Mrs. Who. So begins A Wrinkle in Time, the fantastic children's book written by Madeleine L'Engle.

 

The stage adaptation of this popular children's book is arriving a the Know just in time for the holidays... and Give Back Cincinnati is joining in the fun! Join other Give Back Cincinnati members for GBC Night at the Know, Thursday, Dec. 16 at 8:00 p.m. All tickets are $12 in advance and $15 when purchased during the week of the performance, starting Monday at noon. You can purchase online at www.knowtheatre.com or call the Know Theatre box office at (513) 300-KNOW (5669).

 

In addition, the Know is celebrating the joy of reading A Wrinkle In Time transports children to, by hosting a book drive to benefit the Peaslee Neighborhood Center.  Give Back Cincinnati are invited to drop off new or gently-used children's books to Know Theatre, Monday-Saturday, 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Or, simply bring your donations to the theatre on GBC Night at the Know!
