Midas Man

Hors d'oeuvres, cocktail hour, & open galleries beginning at 6:00pm. Dessert reception to follow, featuring live music from John Lennon tribute Star Tim Beasley.

On Thursday, November 9, 1961, a man named Brian descended the stairs to a cellar in Liverpool and changed the world forever. When Brian Epstein watched The Beatles perform, he saw something no one else could – a glimmer of gold. Being Jewish, closeted, and having grown up as an outsider who had failed at pretty much everything, he was a 26-year old with something to prove and who wanted to tear up the rulebook.

Sponsored by Harry Laderberg, Linda (Laderberg) & Leigh Baltuch, and Mallory (Stark) & Romney Laderberg, in memory of their dear brother, William Laderberg.
