Celebration for Union Station
Renowned clarinetist Gary Bovyer and the Occidental-Caltech Symphony, under the direction of Allen Robert Gross, performed Celebration for Union Station, a classical concert benefiting Union Station Foundation.
Held at All Saints Church on April 5, the event raised more than $40,000 for Union Station's programs for homeless adults and families. In addition to purchasing tickets, many donors chose to underwrite tickets for Union Station clients to attend the concert.
Long-time Union Station supporters James and Harriett Fullerton of Pasadena and Heather and Paul Haaga, Jr. of La Canada were the presenting sponsors of this special concert.
