AS220's Fools Ball is now just over two weeks away. If you aren't busy on May 17th, consider zipping down (or up) to Providence for this once-a-year event. This is a major fundraiser for AS220, and there are two levels of tickets you can get: $20 gets you into the house party (9pm), where there will be music, games, drinks, and all sorts of fun. $75 gets you into the house party and the sponsor's cocktail party (7pm) where there will be food and drinks. (The $75 ticket also includes admission to all the other Fools Week events). For any questions, or to reserve some tickets, send me a message. 10:27:43 AM
