SHINE! Gala

2022 SHINE! GALA

ANDREA & FRED HOFF, GALA CHAIRS

On May 6, 2022, the Celebrity Series SHINE! Gala shone bright from the Cyclorama at the Boston Center for the Arts after nearly a three-year live hiatus. Gala Chairs Andrea & Fred Hoff hosted an unforgettable evening welcoming guests back to live performance and magnifying Celebrity Series’ impact on Greater Boston communities. Event guests and supporters raised more than $525,000 to support Celebrity Series’ mission to bring the arts to everyone and everyone to the arts.

The evening came with many surprises, curated by interim Artistic Programmer Bobby Asher, including performances from the Boston Music Project’s Summer Street Brass Band, New York-based brass band The Westerlies, and singer and songwriter Aoife O’Donovan. And to close out the evening, DJ Chris Roxx added an exciting twist to his DJ set: a live band!

Thanks for making us SHINE! again.
