The 13th Annual Mask Parade & Gala

One of Bay County’s most attended fundraising events benefiting Covenant Hospice, invited attendees to “An Evening Abroad”, where décor and entertainment would transport guests to France, Spain, and other European destinations.

In months before the event, dozens of local artists and celebrities had created beautifully hand painted ceramic masks, that were displayed and sold at silent auction. The evening concluded with live music by Joey Shaling and an exciting live auction.

According to the organizers, proceeds from this event stay in Bay and Gulf County to help fund the unfunded and under-funded programs of Covenant Hospice. These programs include Bereavement, Spiritual Care Services, and Children’s Support and Volunteer Services. The organizers state that since its inception, the Mask Parade has collectively raised over one million dollars and exhibited more than 750 masks.
