Regrettably, due to the challenging public health situation that is COVID-19 and because the well-being of our community is our top priority, SFGC has made the difficult decision not to hold our Gala in person. 

While the coronavirus has gotten the best of our Gala, public performances, and in-person rehearsals for the time being, we refuse to let it get the best of SFGC and our community. 

During the week of March 9, SFGC will unveil plans for a spirited online giving campaign in lieu of our Gala. During this time, we'll set aside the bottles of bubbly and turn our efforts to making lemonade from lemons.
