LIGHTS! CAMERA! AUCTION!

On September 22, 2023, Tulsa witnessed a night of glitz and giving at the highly anticipated Appetite for Construction event hosted at Metro Appliances & More. The evening commenced with an opulent red carpet entrance where guests showcased their style, either embracing the allure of Hollywood Glam or donning outfits inspired by their favorite silver screen celebrities.

The red carpet wasn't just a pathway—it was a prelude to an evening of sophistication and philanthropy. Attendees had the opportunity to immortalize the moment with a picture alongside the iconic "Oscar" statue, a hallmark of cinematic success. The glamour continued as guests savored a specially curated redcarpet drink, setting the tone for the night.

Once inside the culinary journey began, tantalizing taste buds with an array of unique small dishes crafted by ten of Tulsa's most talented chefs. Each chef transformed a showroom kitchen into a culinary haven, presenting guests with an exquisite gastronomic experience.

Amidst the culinary delights, guests were enticed by a silent auction, wine pull, and jewelry raffle. These attractions weren't just enticing; they were a gateway to making a difference. Remarkably, the combined efforts of the attendees resulted in a substantial $24,000 raised for the HBA Charitable Foundation.

A heartfelt appreciation is extended to all the sponsors whose unwavering support played a pivotal role in the event's success. Their generosity echoes the spirit of unity and shared dedication to creating positive change within the community. Appetite for Construction 2023 will be remembered as a night that blended glamour and benevolence, leaving a lasting impact on workforce development.
