Jefferson Center is grateful to patrons like you and our generous sponsors as we present the final entries in our Listen now, Gather later virtual series. In 2020, we welcomed six acclaimed acts to our Fostek and Shaftman stages for an exclusive digital series. Now, as we look with hope to a future of concerts -gathering in person with each other -- we’re pleased to bring this series to an exciting, dynamic close with content recorded from our own stages. As you enjoy this performance, we hope you share our enthusiasm and anticipation of what’s to come. A history of Jefferson Center’s fiscal responsibility along with our Give now, Gather later campaign and support from corporate sponsors like Kroger have allowed the organization to continue with its mission of contributing to the art and culture of the region. Thank you for your generous support. Please enjoy the show,

C Y R U S PA C E EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
