aGLIFF's Annual BLOOM Fundraiser is Tonight


The Austin Gay and Lesbian International Film Festival (aGLIFF) is gearing up for its 22nd instantiation in September, which means it's time for another one of their acclaimed spring fundraisers, BLOOM. The soiree takes place tonight at Palm Door, and it's not too late to get a ticket online.

What began in 2006 as an equal parts homecoming for the new season and fashionable fundraiser has grown into something of a tradition for the festival, the largest of its kind in the southwest. Like in past years, this year's BLOOM culminates in a raffle where one lucky boy or girl will drive away in a brand new Subaru of his or her choice (valued up to $24k)—as only up to 2,000 of their $20 raffle tickets are to be sold, the chances of winning are significantly better than, say, winning American Idol. Guests at BLOOM also get to enjoy an open bar while checking out a sampling from some of the films to be screened at this year's festival.

Tickets can be purchased online until 8:30 p.m. Entry tickets are $20 for non-members or $15 if you're a cardholder.
