SUMMARY:95th Anniversary Soiree: World of Jazz
DESCRIPTION:Sip your drink\, tap your feet\, and place some bids for a good cause \n\n\n\nCome Meet the Brass\n\n\n\nJoin the World Affairs Council as we celebrate 95 years of creating a world with you\, right here in Pittsburgh\, where we have connected as a community\, considered global perspectives\, and inspired each other to make a local impact. As we near the century mark\, you can support the future of that work while simultaneously enjoying an evening of live jazz\, a live auction\, and live wires from around town. In other words\, the best\, brightest\, and grooviest from across the region will be there to clink glasses with you. \n\n\n\nWorld of Jazz: A note to remember\n\n\n\nWynton Marsalis once referred to jazz as “the perfect metaphor for democracy.” Democracy has truly been at the heart of our work this year\, so there can be no better soundtrack for the occasion than jazz. \n\n\n\nThe night’s hot licks\, blue notes\, and swing rhythms will also honor the pivotal place that Pittsburgh’s Hill District holds in jazz history. From the legacy of the Crawford Grill to Billy Strayhorn’s collaborations with Duke Ellington\, “Little Harlem” played a huge role in the global ascension of jazz. \n\n\n\nFinally\, the Soiree will channel what Herbie Hancock described when he said\, “We all want to live in a jazz world where we all work together\, improvise together\, are not afraid of taking chances and expressing ourselves.” Join us in that world for a night and celebrate everything we’ve accomplished so far\, while at the same time\, refilling our cups in preparation for the work still to be done. \n\n\n\nWhen\n\n\n\nFriday\, October 9\, 20265:30 PM | VIP Reception6:30 PM | General Admission Reception7:15 PM | Dinner\, Entertainment\, and Live Auction8:45 PM | After Party10:30 PM | That’s a Wrap! \n\n\n\nWhere\n\n\n\nThe Duquesne Club325 Sixth AvePittsburgh\, PA 15222 \n\n\n\nWhat to expect\n\n\n\n\nJazz from around the world with cats from around the way\n\n\n\nDinner and drinks to send you\n\n\n\nA high energy\, live auction with lots to make your paddle twitch\n\n\n\nPhoto moments that give heat\, groove\, and get down\n\n\n\nVIPs will enjoy an exclusive reception\, valet parking\, and more\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWondering what a Soiree with the World Affairs Council of Pittsburgh is like?
