Our 2024-2025 season is off to an exciting start and I’m delighted
to share our fall edition of Ovations magazine with you.
We had a busy summer here at the Center and were thrilled to
welcome so many of you to our very first immersive experience
SPACE EXPLORERS: THE INFINITE. We will continue to curate new
experiences as part of our mission to inspire and entertain people
of all ages.
As you browse through this magazine, I hope you’ll enjoy seeing
highlights of some of the many amazing events and programs that
have taken place since our last issue. From sponsoring and hosting
the inaugural Day of 200,000 Meals in partnership with the Palm
Beach County Food Bank, serving as the South Florida host for
National Dance Day, to our first Shakespeare Summer Intensive and
numerous other Education Programs, it’s been a busy and fulfilling
time. We’ve also welcomed three new board members and honored
two longtime members who have retired and moved on to become
Life Trustees as Chair Emeriti.
This season, laughter, wonder and inspiring moments are in store!
Our line-up features some of the top artists in music, comedy, dance,
Broadway and more, including several award-winning performances,
breathtaking artistry and spectacular holiday productions for the
entire family.
As always, your support and commitment to the Kravis Center and
