Greenwood Winter Gala 2026

Date & Time: December 12, 2026 at 5:00 PM (Central Standard Time)

Venue: The Vista at 21

The Greenwood Winter Gala promises to be an extraordinary evening dedicated to a crucial cause: preserving the historic commercial storefronts on Greenwood Avenue and supporting the ongoing operations of this cherished historic district.

The event features a cocktail hour and silent auction with unique items to benefit local historic preservation efforts. Guests will then enjoy a formal dinner and awards ceremony honoring community leadership and district champions.

A highlight of the evening is a live performance by Grammy-nominated R&B artist Ruben Studdard, providing world-class entertainment in a formal masquerade setting. Attendees are encouraged to come suited, booted, and masked for a night of celebration.

Supporting this fundraiser directly strengthens the preservation of the last remaining historic block on Greenwood Avenue, making it a remarkable opportunity to celebrate resilience, honor history, and enjoy exceptional R&B soul for a great cause.
