Sunday, September 22, 2019, 5:30-8:00 p.m.
Baywood Golf & Country Club
Each year the Eureka Symphony hosts one Gala that raises a significant portion of the money it takes to keep this gem of an orchestra vibrant in our community. Last year's Gala was fun and exciting and this year's Gala on September 22, 2019 promises more of the same! You'll enjoy live background music before dinner, time to share good company and good food, followed by a sublime, short music program by the popular Temporary Resonance (Carol Jacobson, Terrie Baune and John Chernoff) and the lively auctioneer State Senator Mike McGuire helping us highlight the useful auction delights.
If you have any questions or need help with your order, please call 707-845-3655.
