Save the Date! 12th Annual Ever Widening Circle to feature singing sensation Maria Muldaur and humorist Greg Walloch on Friday, October 29, 2010
Join WID, our friends and supporters at our annual gala, Ever Widening Circle, for an evening of entertainment provided by world-class performers, and celebrate disability culture and the 20th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Now in its 12th year, Grammy nominee and singing sensation Maria Muldaur will headline Ever Widening Circle 2010, supported by humorist Greg Walloch, on Friday, October 29, 2010, from 7:00-9:00 p.m. in the Oakland Marriott City Center's Jewett Ballroom, 1001 Broadway Oakland, CA.
Muldaur, a Bay Area resident and perhaps best known for her 1974 top 10 hit, “Midnight at the Oasis,” is well versed in a dazzling range of genres that have spanned a more than four-decade long career. Humorist Greg Walloch will return this year as the opening act to charm the audience with more stories and perspectives on life (and cake). At intermission, all attendees will be treated to an array of delicious desserts, coffee and tea.
Ever Widening Circle serves as a model for presenting entertainment that is accessible for all audiences. Recent performances have included The Blind Boys of Alabama, Janis Ian, comedian Josh Blue and Axis Dance Company, comprised of dancers with and without disabilities (the links at the bottom of this page will take you to highlights and videos of past performances).
