Guests will be immersed in a full Night of Arts experience while raising vital funds that directly support AEIVA, Alys Stephens Center, ArtPlay, and Arts in Medicine at the UAB Center for the Arts.
Your evening begins with a pre-reception, featuring passed hors d’oeuvres, beverages, and a contemporary art gallery experience where you will help select the next work added to AEIVA’s permanent collection. You will also see AIM in action and enjoy a special performance by ArtPlay’s talented young artists, who will open the show in the Jemison Concert Hall.
After the headlining performance, sponsors will be treated to an elegant dinner in the AEIVA galleries, crafted by the award-winning team at Helen.
The incomparable Broadway legend Bernadette Peters will take the Jemison Concert Hall stage, transporting us through decades of iconic music in a performance that promises to be nothing short of magical.
