Wiley Way Soirée: Roaring 20s Night

---

The Wiley Way Soirée is an adults-only charity event to address and support important needs in the Wiley Magnet Elementary School community while having lots of fun. The Soirée also helps foster a strong school community by celebrating the pillars of the “Wiley Way”: collaboration, empathy, kindness and respect.

This year the Soirée is shining a light on two non-profit organizations at the school:

• The Cecilia Rawlins Fund provides Wiley students and families in need with food and housing assistance - a need that has grown dramatically during the past year. 
• The Wiley Elementary Foundation raises funds to increase teacher and staff pay as a way to strengthen Wiley’s award-winning International Studies magnet program.

All proceeds from this event, including the silent auction, will be shared 50-50 by the organizations. 

Parents, teachers, alums, alum parents, and friends of the school are all invited, so spread the word! It's a 1920s theme this year to connect with the Wiley 100 anniversary. Let's toast this milestone!

The Wiley Way Soirée silent auction is an online opportunity for our community to share and bid on unique and exciting items at a range of price points. You can participate in the auction whether you attend the Soirée or not!  The auction is live Friday, October 13 until Saturday, October 21 at 10 pm.

What to Wear

Festive attire -- Flapper and Great Gatsby costumes are encouraged. We'll have a few extra accessories in case you forget your feather boa. The party venue features both indoor space and a tented outdoor grass area, so we discourage spiky high heels.

Parking 

Parking on site is limited, but front door VIP parking is included in many Supporter Packages! There is on-street parking when the small lot fills up. We recommend ride sharing services.
