Chimes of Freedom Opening Night Gala

Thursday, October 1 | 6 – 9:30 p.m.
Performance: Charles H. Babcock Auditorium
Sponsor Dinner: Reynolda House Front Lawn
Sponsor Table Packages

Reynolda presents Chimes of Freedom: Folk Singers and Fellow Travelers, a four-night performance series presented in conjunction with the fall exhibition, Flash Point: The Civil Rights Photography of Danny Lyon.

Through contemporary interpretations of music associated with Harry Belafonte, Bob Dylan, and other performers connected to the Civil Rights Movement, Chimes explores the cultural landscape in which Lyon’s photographs were made. The performance will reflect on a moment when musicians, activists, and artists were engaged in a shared project of witnessing and social change.

Please consider joining us as a sponsor for the Opening Night Gala performance on October 1 in support of Reynolda and to kick off the four-day run of Chimes of Freedom.

Following the performance, enjoy a tented dinner on Reynolda’s sprawling front lawn–making this a night to remember.

Your support helps sustain exhibitions, performances, and public programs that bring artists, audiences, students, and communities into meaningful contact with one another through shared experiences of art, history, and storytelling.

We invite you to join us in sustaining this work, ensuring that Reynolda House remains a place where art, history, and public life continue to illuminate one another for generations to come.
