Greenwich Armory Set to Become ‘Chinatown’ for Family Centers’ Benefit

Immerse yourself in swirling silks, exotic music and the flair of the Far East as Family Centers brings a taste of Chinatown to Greenwich.

Colorful dragons, dancing lions, karate demonstrations, traditional Chinese food and so much more awaits at Family Centers’ “Chinatown: Night of the Dragon” benefit at the historic Greenwich Armory on May 31.

Drawing from elements that made the Chinatown areas of New York and San Francisco so iconic, Greenwich residents and event co-chairs Pam Caffray, Ann Croll and Merrilou Hillenbrand have created a true multi-sensory experience unlike any other.

As Family Centers’ biggest fundraiser of the year, there are several ways you can get involved with “Chinatown: Night of the Dragon.”  A number of sponsorship levels have been created to help ensure the event’s success.  Underwriter opportunities are also available.

For more information or to become a sponsor, visit www.familycenters.org or contact Aleksa Lazarewicz at alararewicz@familycenters.org or 203-869-4848.
