2024 Annual Gala – Light UP! The Night
A fun festive evening celebrating Uptown! Knauer Performing Arts Center
Saturday, February 17, 2024
5:30PM – 10:00PM
Our annual Light Up the Night Gala is a premier event wherein we fill our 327 seat A. Roy Smith Mainstage and provide our supporters with a night they won’t forget! This year our hosts are Sara Michaels and Michael Phelan. The event will begin with signature cocktails and hors d’ oeuvres served at our across-the-street neighbor Chester County History Center, with music from Sara’s recently released Jazz Album https://youtu.be/extezvXW7FY. The fun then moves over to the A. Roy Smith Mainstage, where our attendees will experience the excitement and music of our namesake band “Uptown”! Indeed, we found a band out there with the same name as us! https://www.uptownofficial.com/ . Uptown is a powerhouse of R&B finesse, top-notch voices, & mesmerizing moves for an unforgettable show!
