LilySarahGrace Gala- Last Chance To Get Your Ticket!
by Kelsey Zalimeni
The LilySarahGrace foundation, in conjunction with the Color Outside the Lines campaign, is holding a gala this Saturday in Chelsea. The LSG organization was founded in April 2012 by Matthew Badger and Abby Ballin, who lost their three daughters in a fire on Christmas morning 2011. The foundation honors and survives Lily, Sarah and Grace by raising money for underfunded elementary schools to offer better creative practice programs such as the performing and visual arts.
Saturday's event promotes the newly published You Can't Memorize This book, which features the drawings of over 40 celebrities. Along with Carole Feuerman, figures like Johnny Knoxville, Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, will.i.am, Joaquin Phoenix, Lena Dunham and Jennifer Aniston have contributed to the book.

The LSG gala will take place at Jack Studios on 26th Street, beginning at 7pm. Tickets can be purchased online (VIP ticketholders receive a complimentary copy of You Can't Memorize This). If you can't make the event, you can still get involved by donating through the LSG website.
