A Night United

United Way for Greater Austin
2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2019, 2018

Since 2018, we’ve proudly partnered with United Way for Greater Austin to bring their annual A Night United event to life — each year uniquely designed to inspire, connect, and raise funds to break economic barriers in the community.

​

2025’s A Night United invited guests embrace their inner child with Destination: Imagination, a whimsical celebration of early childhood education. Inspired by the playful spirit of Dr. Seuss, the evening featured vibrant, topsy-turvy décor, interactive installations, and creative activations that sparked curiosity and joy. A cozy book nook encouraged guests to relive the magic of storytime, while thematic touches throughout the venue highlighted United Way’s commitment to giving all children access to quality early learning.

​

In 2024 United Way marked its 100th year with Woven Together, a celebration of community represented through a vibrant patchwork quilt theme. Rich colors, layered textures, and playful hues created a joyful space where guests reflected on a century of impact in Central Texas.

​

The 2023 gala reached for the stars, with a celestial theme inspired by United Way’s community “constellation.” A stage adorned with gold sequins and silver balloons set the scene for inspiring speeches and a standout performance by Americana rock band MADAM RADAR.


Following two challenging years, the community reunited in 2022 at The Line Hotel for a colorful, joy-filled evening. Bright décor, lively music, and an inspirational program led to a record-breaking auction and an impromptu dance party with DJ Ariel that extended the night.

​

In 2019 this event continued the tradition with botanical-inspired décor, rustic charm, and lively entertainment, including Rashad Maybell, the Landers Duo, and a close-up magician. Guests, including Mayor Adler, gathered for a night of food, fun, and fundraising.

​

It all began in 2018 with an intimate dinner featuring live music by Ruby Jane, a family-style meal, and a live auction. The inaugural event set the tone for years of community, celebration, and impact.

​

Our role: Full ideation, creative design, planning, production, and on-site event management.
