AWARD WINNING GALA:  Winner of the SPECIAL EVENTS INTERNATIONAL MAGAZINE “BEST GALA IN THE WORLD” award, CHRISTMAS IN THE SKY, is produced every other year by the Shreveport Regional Arts Council at Louisiana Downs on the second Saturday in December.

2022 celebrates the 19th biennial, black-tie, glitzy, glamorous, internationally award-winning, fundraiser for the Shreveport Regional Arts Council. Following a 40 year tradition of outlandish themes that dare you to imagine a new reality, the Arts Council brings a theme that creates an entirely imaginative  realm with the unleashing of… KISS A FROG: An Enchanted Evening of Fairy Tales, Tall Tales & Cocktales!

The King of the SKY Realm is Michael T. Acurio, MD,  Presenting Sponsor. Michael leads a cadre of Knights in Shining Armor who have conquered the terrors of the COVID reign and deftly brought the SRAC Kingdom back to life with the return of the SKY Gala.
