Special thanks to the Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts Center staff and volunteers, Steve Carignan, executive
director, and all of our guests this evening.
Special thanks to all donors who contributed after our publishing date and to everyone in attendance at this
evening’s concert.
As always, the end of the concert does not mean the end of the
evening, but the beginning of our post-concert festivities! Enjoy
the champagne and hors d’oeuvres (with ginger ale for the lighter
palette) as you mingle with friends, students and faculty artists!
McElroy Lobby:
Bob Dunn, guitar, will keep the McElroy Lobby lively with stellar
arrangements in a variety of styles to enjoy at the reception.
Davis Hall:
UNI student jazz combo Night Mayor will present a collection of
standards and new jazz repertoire in a nightclub-feel setting.
