The Gravedigger’s Ball is an annual fundraising gala to support the Friends of Laurel Hill and West Laurel Hill’s mission to preserve, promote and protect the arboretums, statue gardens and historic landmarks that make up our cemeteries.
Join us on Friday, October 15, 2021, at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, for the most spirited party in the region! Enjoy an evening of great food, live music, a live auction with one-of-a-kind prizes, costume contest, and entertainment – all while supporting a great cause. Proceeds raised help fulfill the Friends’ mission to preserve, promote, and protect both Laurel Hill and West Laurel Hill Cemeteries.
Tickets include admission, open bar, delectable food, an always-amazing costume contest, a night full of dancing, and many fun memories for years to come! Black tie, masquerade, or costume attire is recommended, and to ensure everyone’s safety, proof of a COVID vaccination is required. Attendees will also be required to wear masks while indoors and outdoors, except when eating or drinking.
