 The Ball of Peoria is a fundraiser for the restoration of the Peoria Women’s Club 432 seat theatre.

The theatre has been shuttered to the public since the 1970s. We are in the process of restoring our building, so that we can once again provide community resources and unique performances from our stage. With your help, we can achieve this goal!

Wondering what to wear?

For a true Bond-inspired look, channel the sophisticated elegance of the classic spy. Gentlemen, don a sharp tuxedo or nice suit and a touch of flair with a pocket square or cufflinks. Ladies, embrace timeless glamour in a floor-length gown with a daring slit or a vintage cocktail dress, paired with elegant heels and retro accessories like pearl earrings or a chic fur stole.

Think classic Hollywood meets the high-stakes world of espionage—refined, mysterious, and effortlessly stylish.
