IMC’s annual Summer Gala Notte Bianca 2021 celebrates IMC’s importance as a key cultural attraction and asset for the City of Newport – and serves as the organization’s largest fundraising event. This year’s gala has been re-envisioned as an exquisite evening of culinary temptations, lively libations, and delightful garden performances that showcase IMC’s creativity. Hosted by Jonna Chewning, the evening includes original site-specific works created for the gardens at the Sheep Shed Estate performed by the dancers of Island Moving Company. Tickets and sponsorship information are available at islandmovingco.org. Proceeds from this fundraiser help to underwrite IMC’s education and community programs and further the health of Newport County’s arts & cultural ecosystem.
