Michelle Obama in Boston next month for two fund-raisers at ICA
First lady Michelle Obama is coming back to Boston next month on a fund-raising mission for her husband’s reelection campaign.
She will attend two events on March 9 at the Institute of Contemporary Art.
The first, a reception, has tickets costing $500 and up. The second, a dinner, has tickets beginning at $5,000 apiece.
Both events will benefit the Obama Victory Fund, a joint fund-raising committee supporting the president’s reelection committee, Obama for America, and the Democratic National Committee.
The first lady last visited Boston on June 30, when she attended a fund-raiser in Chestnut Hill. She was back in Massachusetts over the summer, when she, President Obama, and the couple’s daughters, Malia and Sasha, vacationed on Martha’s Vineyard.
During that visit, the Obamas dined with Governor Deval Patrick and Massachusetts first lady Diane Patrick.
