Splendor 2022: As Time Goes By

  • Date & Time
    • Saturday, March 19, 2022
  • Description

    Splendor 2022 welcomes everyone back in person to the Nadine McGuire Theatre and Dance Pavilion. Cocktails, dinner, dancing, the after-party, and silent auction will take place outdoors under beautifully decorated tents on the Reitz Union Lawn. Student performances will be presented in the Constans Theatre. 

    As time goes by, Splendor remains. Interlock arms with your darling as you stroll to this year’s annual benefit gala for the UF School of Music and School of Theatre + Dance. We welcome you to a romantic candle-lit dinner followed by swooning performances in the main theatre. Gamble your luck at the silent auction, and then dance the moonlight away to our nightclub’s jazzy songs. You must remember this, a kiss is just a kiss, and this year’s Splendor you’re not going to want to miss! 

    The Spirit of Splendor
    Proceeds from Splendor support strategic priorities and initiatives for students and faculty in the School of Music and School of Theatre + Dance—scholarships, equipment needs, masterclasses with guest artists, and so much more. Your investment equips our students with the resources and support to cultivate the bold ideas that can change the world.
