37th Anniversary Gala
May 17 @ 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm
The King Arts Complex’s 37th annual GALA honoring Demetries Neely, Executive Director of KAC. This year’s Gala will be held on Friday, May 17, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. We will celebrate Demetries, who has successfully led KAC for the past thirteen years and has positioned KAC for a bright future.
Over Demetries’ tenure, KAC grown its resources, broadened its donor base, and brought alignment to the board. Her tenure has been transformative. We have watched as Demetries has improved KAC’s brand equity, grown popular community programming, and made significant capital improvements. Demetries came to KAC through service on its board of directors and applied her background in law and business to shore up KAC finances, pay off debt, create a positive cash flow and establish an endowment fund. Through her relentless efforts, community programming has expanded, and educational programming remains stellar.
