Please join Glendale Arts at our annual Summer Soiree “Under A Thousand Stars” to be held on Saturday, July 27, 2024 from 7:00-10:00pm at ace/121 Gallery. Hosted by KTLA 5 News Reporter Ellina Abovian, the evening is a fundraiser in support of creating year-round opportunities for artists and audiences to come together and inspire creativity, foster meaningful connections, and build community through the performing, cinematic, and visual arts.

The evening starts at 7:00pm with music from Savi and the Hot Toddies, featuring Savi Labensart on vocals, Josh Levy on keyboard, Blake White on bass, and Riner Schivally on guitar.

A highlight of the event will be the presentation of The Aura, Glendale Arts’ inaugural award honoring luminaries who power the arts. The first-ever recipients of The Aura are Laemmle Theatres Head Greg Laemmle and his wife Tish Laemmle, Art in the Arthouse Curator at the family-run theatres which have brought the best of foreign and independent cinema to Los Angeles for over 85 years. The Laemmles will be honored in recognition of their unparalleled legacy of dedication to independent filmmakers and the art of storytelling on the screen.

Guests are invited to revel in the dazzling beauty of the gallery, transformed into an elegant indoor/outdoor spectacle of art and performance. The inspirational evening will comprise epicurean delights, artful mixology, live entertainment, and silent and live auctions featuring arts, entertainment, and memorable experiences.
