The David Lynch Foundation will host an “An Historic Night
of Jazz” benefit to raise money for free meditation
instruction to inner city kids, veterans suffering from PTSD,
low-income communities and women and girls who have been
victims of violence and abuse. The event will be on
Thursday, December 13th starting at 6:00PM at Jazz at
Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Theatre, featuring
performances by jazz legends Wynton Marsalis, Herbie
Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Esperanza Spalding and Corinne
Bailey Rae. This unprecedented gala event will be hosted ABC
news anchor George Stephanopoulos and filmmaker David Lynch.
Highlights of the event include a conversation on the
benefits for health of Transcendental Meditation among
high-profile thought leaders, including cardiac surgeon and
TV medical talk show host Dr. Mehmet Oz and financier and
philanthropist Ray Dalio. During the festivities, Mr. Dalio
and his wife, Barbara, will be honored with the David Lynch
Foundation’s “Unbounded Generosity Award” for 2012, and Dr.
Oz and his wife, Lisa, will be honored with the Foundation’s
“Perfect Health Award” for 2012.
Proceeds from the event will go towards teaching the
Transcendental Meditation technique to thousands of
inner-city youth, veterans with post-traumatic stress
disorder, and women and girls who have been victims of
violence and abuse. Over the past seven years, the David
Lynch Foundation has provided scholarships to more than
250,000 at-risk adults and children to meditate.
