Step into a world just beyond the ordinary, where artistry leads the way. Gala for Straz Center is more than a celebration—it’s a journey into the heart of the performing arts, wrapped in mystique and quiet wonder.
Gather for a cocktail reception before ascending to a rare experience—dinner on Morsani Hall stage. Throughout the evening, captivating entertainers and performances unfold to spotlight opera, musical theater and dance, creating dramatic moments that linger. Cap off the evening at After Dark, where the revelry continues beyond the stage.
Dress in hues that hint at mystery—deep jewel tones, soft metallics. Let textures tell a story. Let presence be your statement.
Join us for a night where atmosphere takes center stage and every guest becomes part of the experience – all in support of Straz Center’s mission to inspire, educate and connect our community through the power of the performing arts.
Black-Tie Optional
Hosted by Straz Center Board of Trustees.
