2010 FIRST LOOK FOR CHARITY The word "big" comes to mind when you think about the Chicago Auto Show. It is the nation's largest auto show. Ditto when you think about First Look for Charity, the auto show's benevolent black-tie event. It is among Chicago's biggest single-day charity events.
The all-new 2010 Equinox blends distinctive design with outstanding efficiency. This great-looking compact crossover delivers a best-in-segment EPA-estimated highway fuel economy of 32 mpg -- a 33-percent improvement over the previous model. But most important, your support of First Look for Charity helps 18 significant Chicago area charities in a big way. From an event that raises more than $2 million annually, your donation will benefit any or all of them. First Look for Charity is an anticipated event among socialites and car buffs. The black-tie affair allows participants to stroll the show floor amid opulence not present during the public portion of the Chicago Auto Show Enjoy abundant hors d'oeuvres, champagne, wine, soft drinks and dessert while strolling a show floor that boasts more than 1,000 new vehicles -- some on display for the first time anywhere. This year's gala features five "Drive-thru Gourmet" tasting stations and three "Destination Dining" multi-course dining areas. Presented as a themed tour of the auto industry's top national markets, this dining experience paves the way to an international love affair with food and culture. Follow these links for previews of the menu and the map that identifies the various food station locations. Twelve of Chicago’s top restaurants and caterers will contribute to the event by preparing miniature versions of their signature desserts, which provide a sweet conclusion to the worldwide culinary journey.
