Sponsored by the 2024 Benefit Host Committee: Honorary Co-Chairs Jay & Michelle Gamble // Wintergreen Club
6:00 pm: Drinks & Appetizers on the Blue Ridge Terrace, sponsored by Wintergreen Club
7:00 pm: Dinner & Performance in the Dunlop Pavilion
Artistic Director Erin Freeman brings you an exciting evening full of colorful homages to the one and only George Gershwin! This special event is one you will not want to miss as we celebrate the impact of Wintergreen Music, the partnership with Wintergreen Resort, and the 100th anniversary of Gershwin’s famous Rhapsody in Blue! Join Honorary Host Committee Co-Chairs Jay and Michelle Gamble in supporting the Wintergreen Music Festival – the special place that connects nature with music, students with professionals, musicians with artistic freedom, and a community that makes it all possible!
The Wintergreen Club will generously host a cocktail hour where you’ll mingle with musicians and students on the Terrace. Next, step into a transformed Dunlop Pavilion for an evening filled with symphonic jazz, rhythm, and blues – all while seated with friends, Festival Artists, and LEAD Cooperative students. This year, we once again invite table sponsors to take a seat on stage to experience the music from an amazing and unique perspective in support of Wintergreen Music.
The 6th Annual Benefit provides significant and critical support for the mission of Wintergreen Music. This important fundraising event brings musicians, students, and supporters together through delicious food, delightful music, and a magical environment. Join us for this flashy, fun, and festive evening!
