About this Event
The 10-year Anniversary Soirée is an intimate afternoon to celebrate a decade of Level Ground with renowned voices from art and film in the greater Los Angeles area. In addition to celebrating 10 years, Level Ground is honored to welcome legendary composer and transgender activist Beverly Glenn-Copeland for one of his final public performances. Reconnect with our beloved community as we enjoy live performances and an array of light bites and tapas from Chaos Kitchen and specialty cocktails from Sure Thing.
The afternoon’s program will include a brief presentation of the 2025-2030 strategic plan and an award ceremony to honor integral collective members and patrons whose contributions made the last decade possible. Your fanciest fashions are highly encouraged for this ticketed event! All proceeds from the evening will go toward Level Ground’s continued programming for Queer, Black, and Brown artists.
About Beverly Glenn-Copeland
The diverse work of legendary singer, composer and transgender activist Beverly Glenn-Copeland has been gathering momentum in recent years thanks to a reissue of the extraordinary folk-jazz explorations of his debut self-titled album (1970) and the widespread discovery of his acclaimed masterpiece Keyboard Fantasies (1986); an ahead-of-it’s-time synth exploration which somehow combines the essence of new-age minimalism, early Detroit techno and the warmth of traditional songwriting.
Throughout a fifty year recording career, Beverly Glenn-Copeland's music has defied categorisation and genre, its only consistency being the extraordinary fusion of vision, technology, spirituality and place.
