The Shed at OTTO in Carpentersville, Ill., will be the location for the Elgin Symphony Orchestra’s annual Gala on Saturday, May 16.

The festive fundraiser, “A Serenade to the Fox Valley,” will feature a special ensemble performing timeless tunes in a loving tribute from the ESO to the community that has been its home and inspiration for 76 years.

The Gala starts with a cocktail hour at 5 p.m., followed by dinner, the performance, and a live auction. The ESO will also honor its Volunteers of the Year, Pat Sekowski and John Pilsits, and will recognize OTTO as its Corporate Partner of the Year.

Tickets are $200. Numerous sponsorship opportunities with exclusive benefits are available. For more information, visit www. ElginSymphony.org.
