The 2010 Beastly Feast
The 2010 Beastly Feast, Silverback Gorilla Gala, will celebrate Ford Motor Company's silver anniversary of 25 years as Presenting Sponsor with a tribute to the leader of the gorilla kingdom: the majestic silverback. The Ford African Rain Forest showcases Zoo Atlanta’s 22 western lowland gorillas, the largest collection among North American zoos. The lush naturalistic habitat houses three silverback gorillas leading family troops and two living in a “bachelor” group of three.
Sophisticated elegance, a unique locale and spectacular live and silent auctions make the Beastly Feast one of the year's most highly anticipated galas. The Zoo expects to raise over $1 million for the 13th consecutive year.
On May 15, guests will begin the evening at 6:30 with a stroll throughout the Zoo grounds enjoying cocktails and hors d'oeuvres from kiosks hosted by some of Atlanta's finest restaurants. A seated dinner, dancing to the music of the band, The Total Package, will follow in the Ford Pavilion which will be magnificently themed by the creative talents of Tony Brewer & Company. Live and silent auctions featuring unique treasures, exciting travel and cultural experiences will complete the night.
The generous donations from the Beastly Feast patron's support mission-critical conservation and education efforts, contributing directly to Zoo Atlanta's reputation as a national leader in animal care and preservation of endangered species.
