Need some nudging to experience the social event of the season?
If you love to gather with like-minded friends, celebrate, wine, dine and feel divine, Sinfonia Gulf Coast’s annual fundraising event is a must-not-miss experience. To motivate you, we give you ten of our favorite
reasons to … CRESCENDO!
1. Cre·scen·do (/krəˈSHenˌdō/) Even the name is full of fun! It’s such an exciting word — it’s a noun, adverb, adjective and verb.
2. We love a themed party! This year’s theme is “Ebony & Ivory Ball.” Whether you want to go black with a touch of cream or white with a hint black — any variation on the elegant theme of Crescendo noir (en blanc) will do.
3. The chic artwork by international fashion illustrator Lindsey Kate tells us CRESCENDO! 2023 is going to be a bold, hold-on-to-your-hats-ladies-and-gents, affair to remember.
4. Sinfonia Gulf Coast is presenting this event … that means … live entertainment! Last year, we were treated to an electric performance by amazing Ezinma. We cannot wait to see what surprises Sinfonia has in store for us this year!
5. The venue. The event will be held at the Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa, so it is sure to be a swank soiree. You had us at “ballroom.”
6. We’re starved! With the excitement of this extravaganza, we’ve already worked up quite an appetite. We love a proper Sunday luncheon served at linen clothed tables set with candles and creative decor. Delish!
7. Party prizes! The raffle, the silent auction of art, wine, jewels, excursions and more, plus the live auction of curated A-list travel getaways, you couldn’t possibly plan yourself. Win-win!
8. Gathering with gal pals and gents. The perfect way to shake off the winter blues and usher in spring with the sizzle of Crescendo!
9. Treble Makers! As a member of the Treble Makers, you considered a VIP at CRESCENDO!. Your $550 contribution will enable Sinfonia to continue to perform music with 3,500 elementary students throughout Okaloosa and Walton Counties, thanks to Link Up — Sinfonia’s collaborative partnership with Carnegie Hall’s Weill Institute of Music.
10. Local kids! Proceeds from CRESCENDO! benefit Sinfonia and its music education programs, which include musicians/guest artists in schools, free orchestra concerts, bus transportation for students, Sinfonia Youth Orchestra program, Arts in Medicine initiative with Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital on the Emerald Coast
and Link Up. To purchase tickets go to our website
