SOCIETY FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS 2013 SPRING GALA,
RED HOT RIO! BRINGS THE LATIN BEAT TO HOUSTON
April 20, 2013
|
HOUSTON, TEXAS - Dynamic duo Rosemary
Schatzman and Vanessa Sendukas are chairing this year’s Red
Hot Rio, benefiting Society for the Performing Arts (SPA).
Liz and Tom Glanville will serve as the honorary chairs. SPA
is known for bringing the world’s best to Houston, the 2013
gala will surely not disappoint the crowd with its sizzling
sights and samba sounds of a sultry night in Brazil when Red
Hot Rio! takes over the Wortham Center Grand Foyer on
Saturday, April 20, 2013. The red hot evening starts at 7:00
p.m. with cocktails. It will be a feast for the senses with
tantalizing fare created by Jackson and Company and
sumptuous décor by Rebekah Johnson of Bergner & Johnson. So
grab your passport and get ready to dance the night away to
Brazil’s samba sensation and Latin Grammy Award winner Diogo
Nogueira. Guests will also enjoy music from the Memphis
Train, who will keep the party dancing into the night.
This year’s gala will honor Leticia and Steve Trauber for
the many years they have contributed their time and efforts
to SPA.
oHHotThe proceeds from the gala provide the necessary funds
needed for SPA’s Education and Outreach Program, Beyond the
Spotlight, that takes the performing arts into the community
to present unique learning experiences enriching the lives
of more than 120,000 underserved children and adolescents in
the greater Houston area annually. SPA’s educational
programming includes Master Classes, Residencies, Teacher
Workshops, Lecture/Demonstrations, Creative
Writing/Choreography Programs, Student Matinees and
Transportation Funding, plus performance tickets free of
charge to Houston’s most underserved students. Research
shows that academic performance improves and dropout rates
go down when students are involved in the arts.
Since 1966, Society for the Performing Arts has built a
reputation as the most innovative community-oriented
nonprofit presenting organization in Houston. Last season,
more than 100,000 Houstonians enjoyed SPA’s performances.
Many underwriting opportunities are available. For more
