After mingling with friends, new and old alike, at the reception, the program will begin in earnest with dinner and a lively live auction (please see below for the menu). We will then take a moment to recognize six individuals for their tireless work and advocacy on issues concerning young people, education, community health, and LGBTQ rights: Congressman Joe Kennedy, State Senator Sonia Chang-Diaz, Carl Sciortino, Joe Finn, Diego Sanchez, and Elisabeth Jackson. The evening will culminate in a special vocal performance by the internationally renowned Larry Watson.
