The Sable Soiree - Annual Fall Black Party Fundraiser

We've come this far and we won't stop now!

Chicago winters can be challenging! The 2025 Sable Soiree was an event with a lot of lessons learned. The Loft on Lake venue was amazing. The catering by Sanders' Barbeque was awesome. The music by DJ Ms. Nicky Dvine was incredible. We were able to donate 14 new, unwrapped toys to the USMC Toys for Tots effort, so we are happy to be able to contribute to such a worthy cause. The turnout was low, and not as great as we'd hoped for, but we know just what to do to make the 2026 Sable Soiree an event you won't want to miss!
