Harmony. Belonging. Connection.
Tune into the genius musical storytelling of Stephen Schwartz, whose songs inspire us to dream, to care deeply, and to listen to voices too often overlooked. But this is more than a tribute, it’s an invitation to reconnect.
At the heart of the concert is Song of Wisdom from Old Turtle, a breathtaking choral-orchestral journey that brings the beloved book, Old Turtle by Minnesota author Douglas Wood, to life. With the power of over 200 voices, the harmonies of See Change Treble Choir, and the visual poetry of In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre, this one-of-a-kind performance weaves together myth, music, and nature while reminding us that in the language of story and song, we find the power to heal, to hope, and to belong.
*The 2:30pm performance will have ASL interpretation.

OutFront Minnesota Gala 2026
2026-09-17 17:00 - 21:00 | MN
Over these past two years we have faced national attacks against our trans community and increased rhetoric against the LGBTQ+ community. Simultaneous attacks on our immigrant and BIPOC neighbors have resulted in fear—but also incredible determination and solidarity from our communities in response.
Minnesota is holding the line against these attacks.
OutFront Minnesota’s gala returns to the origins of Minneapolis’ queer community in the historic Gateway District as a reminder that we have seen these attacks before, and they do not work—our community is resilient. This event brings together our strongest supporters to remind each other:
The LGBTQ+ community is a part of every community and we are stronger together.
Tickets are on sale NOW at outfront.org/gala. We’ll see you in September 🏳️‍🌈
