Play It Forward Gala

Play It Forward Gala

On October 4, NAMM’s Museum of Making Music’s “Play it Forward” Gala will feature concert performances by Rock Hall of Famer Mavis Staples and Grammy nominee Joan Osborne. Guests will also enjoy an array of food and beverages and live and silent auctions. Proceeds will raise funds for the museum’s quality educational programs available throughout the year. The programs offer free music lessons and more for thousands of children, adults, and seniors. “We are excited and terrifically humbled to welcome these two iconic musicians to our museum. Through their exceptional and time-honored work they have changed individual lives, given a voice to generations, and overall have made our world a better place,” says MoMM’s executive director Carolyn Grant.
