Our 20th Anniversary Spring Benefit — DMF20: More Than a Moment — was a truly unforgettable evening, made possible by the extraordinary support and spirit of our community.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us, both in person and online, to celebrate 20 years of joy, learning, self-expression, and community through music.
We were especially proud to honor our Board of Directors as this year’s Instruments of Change, recognizing their leadership, dedication, and belief in our mission over the past two decades.
This milestone evening was not only a celebration of how far we’ve come, but a powerful reminder of all that lies ahead.
