AW.E. was privileged to meet the American singer-songwriter, musician, actor, and record producer, Josh Groban Tuesday night and enjoy 20 FREE tickets to his “Straight to You” show at the Bradley Center! Through the Find Your Light Foundation, Josh selects a different arts education organization to donate to in each city the tour plays in. A.W.E. was chosen as the highlighted org in Milwaukee! We invited highschoolers from PLI and Alliance school, and 2 families we’ve been working with in our Summer Truck Studio program.

The opening act was an amazing pianist who was featured on the show America’s Got Talent. ELEW‘s music is described as “an inspired melding of ragtime, rock and pop that he calls Rockjazz”. Sporting sneaks, silver vambraces, and without a bench to sit at, he delivered a lightening performance that energized the whole crowd in anticipation for the upcoming show. We were even lucky enough to meet ELEW after his set where he took pics with our kids and signed their CDs!

What some folks might not know about Groban is how dynamic of a performer he his! He ran through the crowd numerous times, pulled people on stage for comical skits, played the drums for a number of songs and cracked jokes all night long. Favorite part of the show you ask? When he pointed out A.W.E. in the audience and spread the word about our mission and programs!
Thank you so much Josh Groban and the Find Your Light Foundation- we had a blast!!!
