There's still time to grab your spot at An Evening with Gatsby—and now there's even more reason to attend! We'll be giving away an original painting by Springfield artist Laurie Rollet, whose vibrant, joy-filled work inspires hope, growth, and resilience through bold color and emotion. 🌈🎨

Laurie’s art reminds us that even in challenging times, there's always room for beauty and renewal—and we’re thrilled to feature her at this unforgettable night of jazz, art, and celebration at the Dana-Thomas House.
