Glendale Arts will host its Summer Soiree “Under A Thousand Stars” on July 27 from 7-10 p.m. at ace/121 Gallery and will feature food, drinks, a silent auction of local and international artwork, and a program highlighting the organization’s initiatives.
“We are excited to bring supporters and community, business, and industry leaders together for a night that salutes the transformative power of the arts,” said Glendale Arts board Chair Marci DeSousa. “The Summer Soiree will not only showcase the heart and soul that drives Glendale Arts’ mission, but will also celebrate what distinguishes GA as a unique nonprofit with local roots, regional impact and a global footprint.”
The inspirational evening will comprise epicurean delights, artful mixology, a silent auction featuring original works of art by emerging and renowned artists from the Los Angeles area and beyond.
Greg and Tish Laemmle of Laemmle Theatres will receive The Aura, Glendale Arts’ new award honoring arts supporters. The Laemmles will be honored in recognition of their unparalleled legacy of dedication to independent filmmakers and the art of storytelling on the screen.
Proceeds benefit Glendale Arts, a nonprofit promoting creativity and community through the arts. Funds raised will support the organization’s mission to cultivate year-round opportunities for artists and audiences to convene around mutually enriching experiences that promote creativity, foster meaningful connections, and build community through the performing, cinematic, and visual arts mediums.
