This year, we’re calling our annual gala where we honor our Champions of Democracy “The UnGala.” Why? Because rather than serve a boring rubber chicken dinner with the obligatory emcee, we thought we would change it up a bit. We will be presenting both Arena Stage and Black Voters Matter co-founders LaTosha Brown and Cliff Albright with awards (stay tuned for additional details on our other honoree and the different types of elements we’ll be adding). Mark this Thursday, December 8th at 6:30pm at the Renaissance Hotel on your calendar (and purchase your tickets here).
