Labelled '50 Shades of Grey Matter' organiser Lizzy Rich says this year's show is expected to be just as big.
"Cancers of the 'grey matter' are still among the least funded despite being one of the most fatal," Ms Rich said.
'50 Shades of Grey Matter' is an opportunity to give a little love and support to this underfunded cancer."
"Following on from the successful Brain Ball held in Wellington in 2014, of which with the support of the community and beyond raised more than $47,000 for brain cancer research, '50 Shades of Grey Matter' is a fun night of cocktails, canapes, live music and fundraising," she said.
"With the venue set at the beautiful and historical Hermitage Hill in Wellington and featuring the musical styling of Mat Verevis (contestant on the Voice 2014) on a baby grand piano and local talent Sam Coon supporting, '50 Shades of Grey Matter' is an event not to be missed.
"Dubbo artist Kyah Wilson has kindly donated a piece of her work that will be auctioned on the night, along with other great prizes," Ms Rich adding that Langley's Coaches had once again generously donated a bus to transport guests from Dubbo to the event at Hermitage Hill and back again.
