The unique experience includes a champagne reception and gourmet dinner along with immersive entertainment set in the ambiance of the Louis Kahn-designed architectural landmark overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

“Symphony at Salk blends science and art to inspire creativity and enrich our understanding of the world,” Salk President 杰拉尔德·乔伊斯 says. “I am looking forward to the exciting entertainment and the opportunity to showcase our world-class Institute, and I hope many new supporters and community members will join us for an unforgettable evening.”

Event proceeds help drive the Salk Institute’s wide-ranging scientific inquiries that have yielded more than 60 years of life-changing discoveries. The Institute, an independent nonprofit, seeks to understand the foundations of biology and address pressing global challenges such as cancer, aging, and climate change.
