A Saturday evening is meant to be spent surrounded by cocktails, food, entertainment, and after-parties. This is exactly the way the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts plans to spend it at their third season opening with its Take Center Stage Gala themed Coming Up Roses.
You may have heard the popular song “Coming Up Roses” which… yes, from the musical Gypsy… fits perfectly and significantly into what the Gala Honorary Chair Adrienne Arsht wants to depict for this important event: a new beginning in hopes of continuing the Center’s commitment to entertaining performances and educational programs. Did I mention the proceeds of the event will benefit the education and outreach programs of the Center? Their programs provide new hope to families and children aspiring to make art part of their lives.
The delightful event will start off with a cocktail reception at 7pm. Gala Honorary Chair Adrienne Arsht along with 20 Conducting Committee Members will host the main event and the gala dinner. The night will introduce a solo performance by the Center’s Resident Artist and recent star of Miami Libre, Jencarlos Canela. The Center is well-known for showcasing the work of the Miami City Ballet, New World Symphony, America’s Orchestral Academy, Florida Grand Opera and Concert Association of Florida. So expect some of that too!
But like any good event in Miami, the party will keep rocking the evening with an after-party hosted by South Florida’s leading VIPs and nightlife impresarios, such as Brian Antoni, Michael Capponi, Ingrid Casares and Hello Castroneves and featuring renowned DJs. A good dinner means nothing without good dessert and that’s what the after-party will offer (literally speaking) once the gala transforms itself into a nightclub with more cocktails… and I wasn’t kidding about the dessert either!
The event will take place on October 11 at the Sanford and Dolores Ziff Ballet Opera House and the after party at the Peacock Foundation, Inc. Studio.
