You are invited to a magical night out at JMU's College of Visual and Performing Arts POPS PLUS! Collaborative Arts Celebration benefiting student scholarships. This exciting event is a super-charged version of one of JMU's beloved Family Weekend traditions – the JMU POPS! Concert featuring five of JMU’s finest musical ensembles including the JMU Brass Band, the Wind Symphony, the Madison Singers and Chorale, The Marching Royal Dukes (w/Colorguard), alongside a dazzling lineup of performances by JMU's talented students in the School of Theatre and Dance.

To add even more fun to the evening, all patrons will enjoy a Silent Auction that will highlight over 20 pieces of beautiful original artwork by JMU students, faculty and alumni from JMU’s School of Art, Design and Art History, plus a walk-on role in an upcoming JMU musical or a chance to guest conduct the Marching Royal Dukes!  

You can enjoy this amazing performance in one of two ways: Purchase Single Tickets ($33 - general admission) or elevate your experience with an exclusive Gala pre-show cocktail reception in the AUBC Club Room ($135) that includes drinks, dinner, and a reserved seat for the performance.

All event proceeds, including tickets and auction pieces purchased, benefit CVPA student scholarships and help make students' dreams a reality in the Arts at JMU! 

Doors open at 6:30 pm for the Silent Auction.  Performance begins at 8:00 pm.  Concessions will be available for all General Admission patrons.
