Thank you to everyone who attended our first ever Liberty Performance Night at Unexpected Farm. It’s because of you that the night was such a success!

A shout out to for being our MC for the evening, and for being a good sport about participating in my act with Rumor!

I’m so glad that came and started the evening out for us! What a beautiful way to introduce the crowd to Liberty work! Thank you for making the effort!

And thank you to for these beautiful photos from the evening! I know this won’t be the last performance night we host, but having these commemorative photos of the first ever is so special. We appreciate you!

Thank you food truck for joining us and providing snacks and drinks for the evening. I know the audience appreciated it!

And lastly, thank you to my staff and students who volunteered and prepped and made this evening the success that it was! I am in awe and deep gratitude of all of you!
