Founders Celebration

Founders Celebration

We look forward to seeing you on April 30th with Executive and Artistic Director Thor Steingraber and our super-star cast for a special evening that will launch The Soraya’s second decade in style. We will raise a glass with our original Founders plus those supporters whose lifetime giving has since qualified them as Founders.
