Starry Night at Starlight
Summer 2023
Each year, this annual community fundraiser highlights a different class of All-Stars, a group of Kansas City’s most dynamic charitable movers and shakers.
Starry Night at Starlight includes tickets to the Saturday evening performance of one of Starlight’s Broadway shows, and features a pre-show cocktail hour with delicious food from local restaurants and food trucks, and a post-show dance party.
Funds raised from the event directly benefit Starlight’s Bob Rohlf Internship program, which generously provides paid summer internships to college students across multiple departments. Previous events have helped raise more than $100,000 annually in support of Starlight’s Bob Rohlf Internship program.
This event is intended for ALL Starlight supporters 21+!
