A Night We’ve Been Waiting For: Celebrating Unity and Innovation at Broadway Utica
What a night! As the lights dimmed and the last echoes of applause faded, we couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible evening that unfolded. Our recent event, which saw over three hundred attendees filling the space, was not only a celebration of the arts but also a testament to the power of collaboration. Special thanks to Disruption Network for their vital partnership. Collaborating with this esteemed organization has opened new doors and brought fresh, engaging content to our community, making the evening possible and truly spectacular.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Utica Center for Development and the Scalise family—Vincent and Jen, your support in revitalizing Parish on Broadway and welcoming live events has also played a crucial role. Your dedication helps us serve our veterans and the community at large, making every event at this venue meaningful.
A very special acknowledgment goes to The Frank White Experience, the highlight of our night. Your soulful performance was engaging everyone with your dynamic blend of sounds and heartfelt, introspective messages. It was not just a performance; it was a movement, bringing our community together through the universal language of music.
The evening’s success was further amplified by the incredible Fanelli Sound & Lighting team. Joe Fanelli and crew, brought our vision to life with professionalism and expertise —thank you for your endless patience and flawless delivery.
We were also fortunate to have the enthusiastic participation of the Hamilton College Women’s basketball and hockey teams. Your volunteer spirit and energy in helping us set up were invaluable, truly embodying the spirit of #girlpower.
We must also acknowledge our vendors who added unique flavors and crafts to the event: BE. – Life Art Magic, The Brownie Company, Shady Grove Wood Burnings, Lovely Essentials, and Dough Boy BBQ. Your presence and passion for what you do added an extra layer of charm to our gathering.
A special thank you to Westcott Security for their exceptional service and commitment to safety. Their professionalism ensured a secure and smooth event, allowing everyone to enjoy the night worry-free. We deeply appreciate their vital contribution to the evening’s success.
