On June 5, 2020, the Shalin Liu Performance Center celebrates its 10th Anniversary. The new hall was christened on Opening Night with a performance by the Juilliard String Quartet with a packed house of proud, dedicated supporters who helped bring the award-winning hall to life. Throughout the month of June, culminating in the Virtual Gala performance by Marc-André Hamelin on June 27, we’ll be going back in time to celebrate big moments and memorable concerts on Facebook, Instagram, and here on our webpage. Enjoy this photo montage (to the right) of favorite concerts and magical musical memories created at the Shalin Liu Performance Center over the past 10 years. Celebrate with us by sharing your favorite musical moment on any of our socials–Facebook, Instagram –or in the box to the right.
