One hundred years in the making.
One night to mark it forever.

Join us Sept. 21 at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts for our Centennial Gala — an extraordinary evening of music, remembrance, and the world premiere of Liberty's Beacon, a lighting and video installation unlike anything seen before in the United States.
