FAMILY ARTIST IN PROGRAMMING SUMMER DISCOVERY RESIDENCY CAMP SERIES
Bringing the Community Together with the Youth Arts Celebration YOUTH The second annual Youth Arts Celebration presented by The Lyric League, promises to be an inspiring evening when children from different backgrounds take to The Lyric stage to represent their passions and rich cultural heritage through various forms of performing arts. Beyond the appeal of the bright 2017 lights and thunderous applause, these talented performers benefit from the sharing and exchange of ideas with their new friends, exposure to different styles of artistic expression and a sense of camaraderie and support for one another bound by their love of the arts. Perhaps most impressive is not the immense talents of these kids, but their character. The impact of the Youth Arts Celebration extends far beyond the stage. We are helping to shape the lives of our future leaders. Come support our young emerging artists in this dynamic talent showcase, spread the word and bring a friend so that they too can make a difference in these young lives. If you would like to know how you might get involved with The Lyric League or other ways to support Arts & Education at The Lyric, please contact Karin Leone, Director of Education at 772-220-1942, ext 205 or [email protected].

2 01 7 STAY-AT-HOME Gala
Stay at home in your comfy clothes... • No need to add a date to your already busy calendar • One less event you feel you have to attend • Eat whatever you like, whenever you like • Drink your favorite beverages • Listen to your own music • Keep your car parked • Skip shopping for a new dress • Leave the tux in the closet • Skip the salon visit • Curl up, relax and enjoy a quiet night at home!
By having this special fundraising STAY-AT-HOME Gala, The Lyric is saving thousands of dollars by not hosting an event AND you’ll be saving money and time by not having to attend.
We hope for all of this convenience, you’ll appreciate the opportunity to support The Lyric without having to leave the comfort of your home.
