For the third year in a row, the arts councils from Chatham, Durham, Orange, and Wake counties are partnering with WRAL to raise money to support the arts in the Triangle. Big Night In for the Arts returns to the Triangle this year, with another superstar line-up, including Tony winner Beth Leavel, Grammy-nominated musician Rissi Palmer, Chatham County’s own Chatham Rabbits, and much more!

**NEW** This year includes a Triangle-wide watch party. In addition to the WRAL broadcast, Big Night In sponsors at all levels will be invited to the in-person watch party at The Mayton in Downtown Cary, NC, with a special live performance from Rissi Palmer!

The sponsor deadline has been extended until February 17, 2023. Supporters can make a gift to benefit the four counties collectively or designate which specific county they would like to support. Become a sponsor today!
