A little less formal and a lot more fun-Hard Hat &  Black Tie Gala has its own special twist! Guests at the Twin Cities Habitat's premier fundraising event are encouraged to accessorize their evening wear by adding construction accessories. It is the only place in town you'll see Armani and Carhartt in the same room!

Join us for a very special evening of dinner and dancing to support the mission of Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity. This year's gala event will feature live and silent auctions, casino games, a jazz lounge and dancing to the local band Belfast Cowboys. 

With other 700 guests in attendance, this event raises important resources to help hard-working families realize their dream of homeownership.
