The 29th edition of Evening in the Maritimes welcomed more than 500 business, political and media leaders as well as dedicated community supporters for a night of East Coast charm in support of ABLE2: Support for People with Disabilities.
Held on May 29 at The Westin Ottawa, the event raised $300,000, ensuring that ABLE2 can continue providing life-changing programs and services for people with disabilities in Ottawa.
Guests were immersed in a true East Coast kitchen party with a roving fiddler playing sea shanties; pictures at the shell-fie station with the Larry the Lobster mascot; a live painting made by Sam Woj, an artist with a disability; fresh Nova Scotia lobster served by the culinary team of The Westin Ottawa; and an energetic live auction led by Ryan Watson of Raising the Bid, which alone raised over $37,000 in high-stakes bidding.
