NCRCT’s 2nd Annual Dancing in the Rain Gala

Arcata Community Center

The North Coast Rape Crisis Team invites you to be part of something truly special at our 2nd Annual Dancing in the Rain Gala, an unforgettable evening inspired by the golden age of Old Hollywood. Join us on Saturday, May 2nd, 2026, at the Arcata Community Center for a night of purpose, glamour, and community.
Enjoy a decadent buffet by Lost Coast Catering, formerly Uniquely Yours Catering, followed by a captivating performance by Young & Lovely. Doors open at 5:30 PM, with an evening designed to delight, inspire, and make a real difference.

This year’s theme honors resilience, timeless strength, and the grace it takes to keep moving forward—even when the spotlight flickers and storm clouds roll in. At a moment when sexual assault advocacy and violence-prevention programs nationwide are facing unprecedented funding challenges, your presence matters more than ever.

Every ticket purchased directly supports sexual assault counselors and critical survivor services, including emergency assistance with housing, food, and transportation—lifelines when stability feels out of reach. Your night out becomes someone else’s path forward. Come ready to bid on exclusive silent and live auction items and raise a glass for our beloved 208, Wines to Celebrate raffle.

Tickets are $125 each.Your ticket is more than admission—it’s a statement of solidarity, hope, and action.

We hope you’ll join us for an elegant evening where compassion takes center stage and every step forward helps survivors keep dancing in the rain.
