About this Event
Dear Friends,
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Performance Garage, we are thrilled to announce our 25th Anniversary Performance Garage Gala on Saturday, April 5, 2025, at 6pm.
Our 2025 Anniversary Gala will serve as an opportunity to reflect on the Performance Garage's quarter-century legacy, while also raising crucial funds to support our future.
On April 5th, we will honor two remarkable leaders in the world of arts and culture who have elevated Philadelphia’s status to the world stage and who have continually inspired us at the Performance Garage. Joan Myers Brown, founder of Philadanco, and David Devan, former General Director and President of Opera Philadelphia.
Folks who reserved their seats early will leave for the Performance Garage to be in the theater for the concert. At which time, we will deploy the large screen from the ceiling at Bethany Mission and gather the remaining folks to view the simulcast of the program, enjoying the food, drinks, and each other as they watch. We'll reunite around 9pm in the Performance Garage Lobby for dessert and coffee after the performances.
We are dropping our ticket price for the reception and livestream of the concert to $100
No physical tickets -- we have your name at the door -- and free Valet parking at the curb.
