Where Your Money Goes

A Night to Remember is a fundraiser. Every ticket and every sponsorship strengthens arts, history, and culture in the West Valley.

 

The West Valley Arts Council serves the 13 municipalities of the West Valley, running Gallery 37, a summer apprenticeship where local high school students design and permanently install public art in their own cities; free arts workshops for adults 55 and older; and a free public gallery in Surprise.

 

The P.W. Litchfield Heritage Center is a Tier One Arizona Historical Society affiliate museum preserving and interpreting the unique history of Southwest Valley through archives and exhibits and offering a variety of enrichment programs and events.

Why This Night, and Why Here

Arizona made major contributions to WWII, and the West Valley homefront had a major role! The Arizona Goodyear Aircraft plant established by Goodyear Tire and Rubber executive and Litchfield Park founder, Paul W. Litchfield, manufactured aircraft components for the war. The plant was the largest employer in Arizona at that time. The historic hangar at today’s Flite Goodyear is where it all happened!

 

A Night to Remember on November 14th, honors this history and celebrates the West Valley’s impact.
