Each year, local physicians, hospitals, medical groups, and community members gather to celebrate the amazing things Project Access has accomplished at our annual gala. Local businesses donate coveted items for auction and purchase tables while individual supporters purchase tickets to dance the night away. 

​

Over the years our annual gala was held in March and called by a few different names. For more than 10 years, Denim & Diamonds offered themes such as TV Land, Back to the Future, Roaring 20s, and Once Upon a Time. Attendees never failed to surprise and delight with creative costumes and outfits. 

In 2019, the event was moved to November and tagged Fall Ball. The most recent gala in 2022 brought neon to life with Glow Redux. Pops of color, glow in the dark jewelry, karaoke, and a rocking dance floor 

​

Time will tell what the 2023 theme will be but one thing is for sure, proceeds benefit Project Access and the mission of providing access to care for low-income, uninsured residents of Southeast Tennessee.
