Step into the Roaring Twenties

Celebrate an evening of music and connection at our Annual Gala. The night begins with a pre-concert reception, followed by Rhapsody in Blue, a performance that captures the brilliance and rhythm of the Roaring Twenties, featuring works by Milhaud, Prokofiev, Price, and Ravel alongside Gershwin’s iconic title piece. The celebration continues with an exquisite dinner and conversation among the artists and guests who make this community so vibrant. It is a night that honors the power of music and those who champion CMSPB’s mission to transform, connect, and inspire.
