Sheldon Vol2 PINK

It was a night where we stepped out of time and space, dreams were beckoned in and a small orchestra was at the center of it all. Pearls were donned. Confetti filled the air. The rollicking, international sounds of Pink Martini capped off the party of the millennium at The Sheldon 2023 Gala. A sold-out capacity crowd broke out their dancing shoes and a splash of pink to honor longtime Sheldon supporters Sue and Irl Engelhardt, and the Engelhardt Family Foundation. THIS MAGICAL EVENING, CHAIRED BY MICHAEL AND SUSAN SCULLY, RAISED OVER $250,000 TO BENEFIT THE CONCERTS, GALLERY EXHIBITIONS AND EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS OF THE SHELDON.
