SummerFest Gala

SummerFest Gala

La Jolla Music Society presents SummerFest Gala: Echoes Across A Continent on Saturday, August 15, at the home of Joan and Irwin Jacobs. Chaired by Margaret Stevens Grossman, this year’s gala celebrates music and culinary delights from France and Russia. Guests will enjoy a chamber music concert featuring SummerFest artists performing works by Tchaikovsky, Glière, Rachmaninoff, Shostakovich, and others. The collaboration between event designer Janice Dodge and Jeffrey Strauss of Pamplemousse Grille will make this not-to-be-missed event glamorous and enchanting. Proceeds benefit La Jolla Music Society’s education, outreach, and artistic programs. SummerFest 2015 features over 90 world-class artists and ensembles performing 15 concerts between August 5 and August 28. (858.459.3724, ext. 216, www.ljms.org)
