Evolve Beauty Institute, 28 Office Park Drive, Palm Coast, will celebrate its fifth anniversary with an Open House on Saturday, Aug. 16, noon to 4 p.m.
There will be raffles, food and drinks with former students and local business owners in attendance.
Beth Tardiff and Margherita Perry opened Evolve after the school they had been affiliated with closed due to COVID-19.
"Over the past five and a half years, we’ve had the incredible privilege of helping more than 200 aspiring beauty professionals build their confidence, develop their skills and begin careers they can be proud of," Tardiff and Perry said in an email. "We’ve watched our graduates transform their lives, open businesses of their own and create career opportunities for other Evolve students and graduates. Seeing one person’s success open a door for someone else is one of the greatest rewards of what we do."
