| DIVA'S CLOSET SALE
 Pensacola Opera is now accepting donations of new and gently-used women’s clothing and accessories for its annual Diva’s Closet Sale. Items are needed from casual wear to formals, for all ages and sizes. The sale will be held on Saturday, October 25th from 8am to 11am. A preview party and sale will be held on Friday, October 24th from 5pm – 9pm.
Donations are being accepted through the end of September. Please bring all items in clean, ready-to-sell condition to the Pensacola Opera Center, 75 S. Tarragona St, downtown. Items needed include women’s clothing, especially business and evening wear, costume jewelry, handbags, shoes, furs, belts and other accessories.
Diva Donna Clark, this year’s Diva’s Closet Chair, summed up the needs for donations: “We’ve got some fabulous items already, and several boutiques have really stepped up to the plate, but we still need more! With what I know the ladies of Pensacola have in the back of their closets, this year’s sale can be the most fabulous yet!”
All proceeds from Diva’s Closet go to support Pensacola Opera’s educational, outreach, and artistic programs. All donations of clothing are eligible for a tax deduction.
