ELEVATE: ANNUAL JAZZ GALA

Collage’s Annual Gala is one of the Memphis' premier annual celebrations!

Now in its 13th year, this enriching affair features performances by Collage’s world-class professional company alongside students from the Collage Dance Conservatory. Experience special performances by acclaimed jazz artist Wendy Moten, soul singer Talibah Safiya, Carl Caspersen Jazz Trio, and Ensemble X; delicious cuisine by Chef Melissa Swearing; and thirst-quenching cocktails during an elevated afternoon affair in support of the Collage Dance Conservatory.
