SPARKLE AT CLUTCH/AUTO ONE IN VANCOUVER

Thank you to everyone who joined us at “SPARKLE” in November 2008! Starlight’s 4th annual signature fundraising evening at Vancouver's hottest boutique-style auto showroom, Trunk Gallery, was a sparkling success! Guests enjoyed the sensational sounds of local jazz favourite Lesismore and the latest spring fashions from JC Studio at a fabulous fashion show hosted by Vladimir Markovich of BC Fashion Week.
After the show, everyone danced the night away to one of Vancouver’s hottest DJ’s all while helping raise money for programs and events that help brighten the lives of seriously ill children and their families in BC. Watch here for more info on Sparkle 2011!
