An Evening Benefit with Concert and Cabaret Star Karen Akers
Concert and cabaret star Karen Akers will receive the National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA) Award for Excellence in the Performing Arts at an evening benefitevent. Akers’s voice has been lauded by the Los Angeles Herald-Examiner as “…great…an instrument with the power of Streisand’s, the dark passion of Piaf’s and the lean irony of Dietrich’s, but a voice uniquely her own, because it’s coupled with an intelligence that creates moments of riveting theatricality.” She has performed all over the world and has won a Theatre World Award as well as a Tony Award nomination.
The cabaret-themed evening will feature a cocktail reception, a seated dinner by Occasions Catering and a performance by Akers. Proceeds from this annual fundraiser support the Shenson Chamber Music Concerts, led by Artistic Director Gilan Tocco Corn, education programming, and the groundbreaking exhibition, Picturing Mary: Woman, Mother, Idea.
