BARBRA STREISAND will appear at THE GRAMMY MUSEUM at L.A. LIVE's CLIVE DAVIS THEATER for its first program of 2017 on THURSDAY, JANUARY 5th, at 8p (PT). "A Conversation With BARBRA STREISAND" will be moderated by GRAMMY MUSEUM Executive Director BOB SANGTELLI and will feature an intimate discussion with the eight-time GRAMMY winner and current nominee surrounding her career as an actress, singer, director, writer, composer, producer, designer, and author.
Proceeds from the program will provide essential support for the GRAMMY MUSEUM's education programs, which in 2016 served a record 29,000 students through after-school workshops, Museum tours and conversations with artists and music industry professionals.
Said THE RECORDING ACADEMY President/CEO NEIL PORTNOW, “When you think about a GRAMMY LEGEND, BARBRA STREISAND immediately comes to mind. Nominated for a GRAMMY again this year, she's one of only 15 artists to have received our GRAMMY LEGEND award; she's received the prestigious MUSICARES PERSON OF THE YEAR title; and she's a LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD recipient. Add to that the numerous other awards she's received, and her talent and contribution to the entertainment community overall is unmatched. I personally couldn't be more excited about this evening.”
Added SANTELLI, “It is such an honor to kick off our 2017 public programs series with the extraordinary BARBRA STREISAND. When it comes to success in music and entertainment, BARBRA has done it all and I can honestly say that no one has done it better than her. We are thrilled to host her for what will surely be an unforgettable evening, and one the GRAMMY MUSEUM will reap the benefits of for a long time to come as the proceeds from each ticket sale will go directly toward doing what we do best: bringing music education to young people throughout LOS ANGLES.”
Tickets for "A Conversation With BARBRA STREISAND" range from $250 and $100 and go on sale to AMERICAN EXPRESS cardholders and GRAMMY MUSEUM members beginning THURSDAY, DECEMBER 22nd at 10a (PT). Tickets go on sale to the general public beginning THURSDAY, DECEMBER 29th at NOON (PT) and can be purchased at AXS.com. All proceeds will benefit the education initiatives of the GRAMMY MUSEUM.
