Jazz in the Pines Chair Marsha Lytle and Patrons\u2019 Dinner Dance planner, Chris Maxson Photo by Marshall Smith<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you want to feel special and have a little elegant red carpet treatment here on the mountain, the Associates of Idyllwild Arts have the perfect end of summer elixir \u2014 the Jazz in the Pines Patron\u2019s Package highlighted by the Patrons\u2019 Dinner Dance on Friday, Aug. 24.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a VIP evening, elegant and entertaining,\u201d said Associates\u2019 event planner Chris Maxson. \u201cAnd this year we\u2019re going green, supporting the campus sustainability plan.\u201d Maxson also stressed this year\u2019s focus on more involvement with the town, with the intention of bridging a perceived town and gown divide.<\/p>\n

Fine food, including a cocktail party sampler of appetizers from Caf\u00e9 Aroma, Creek House and the Gastrognome and dinner prepared by Idyllwild Arts Food Services Director Chris Stroud. The dinner will be highlighted by Dry Creek Vineyard\u2019s Heritage Zinfandel, a dessert parade and table art by San Miguel de Allende artists Dan and Nisha Ferguson. Entertainment provided includes the award winning Idyllwild Arts student and alumni jazz combo and Jazz Fest featured performers Clayton Cameron and the Jass eXplosion, and jazz chanteuse Mary Stallings with her pianist and arranger Eric Reed.<\/p>\n

Maxson thanked sponsors for their ongoing support. She noted the Associates raised additional money to fund decorations and the open bar so that funds raised though Patrons\u2019 Packages and overall ticket sales would be used to fund Idyllwild Arts scholarships, the mission of the Associates. In 2010-2011, the 200-member Associates raised $86,000 for scholarships.<\/p>\n

Of the overall Patrons\u2019 Package, Maxson said, \u201cThis is the only way to come to the festival, with full concierge treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Included in the $250 per person Patrons\u2019 package are: Friday\u2019s cocktail party and dinner dance (golf cart drivers meet attendees at preferred parking and drive them to the cocktail party); two days of festival attendance and red carpet entry for both days; on campus preferred parking; opportunity to place blankets and chairs in Holmes Amphitheatre prior to the dinner dance on Friday evening, and a keepsake wine glass. Maxson suggests \u201cmountain finery\u201d as appropriate dress for the event.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s theme, \u201cJust Look at Them Now,\u201d honors 25 Idyllwild Arts alumni who have succeeded in their artistic fields. Images of these graduates, then and now, will decorate the Patrons\u2019 Dinner tables. See accompanying table for a full list of the honorees.<\/p>\n

Of the 25 to be honored, John \u201cTully\u201d McIntyre, \u201991 Music; Seth Gelman, \u201992, Interdisciplinary Arts; and Angelina Burnett, \u201996, Theatre, will be at the dinner.<\/p>\n
