The second annual SEBAS Foundation’s Emerge Gala will take place on Wednesday, September 7th, with a goal to raise funds and awareness for Houston organizations that shine a light on and help the Houston refugee community. The event will feature a masquerade ball and will be hosted at the prestigious Majestic Metro.
The ball includes an art exhibition and auction of paintings. Celebrity artists Ange Hillz and Chukwunonso Ofili will mesmerize with live painting exhibitions while guests listen to music from pianist Angela Nickel. Afterwards, attendees will have the chance to hear from an all-star lineup of guest speakers and participate in a live auction during the event. SEBAS Foundation founder and host, Jennifer Sebasigari, will share her incredible story, including her experience adapting to life in the U.S as a refugee from the war in Congo and the inspiration behind giving back to the refugee community.
