The 2025 Gathering for the Grand

Honoring Andy Hill & Renee Safier of the musical group “Andy & Renee & Hard Rain”

Thank you to everyone who attended!

Grand Vision’s 16th Annual Gathering for the Grand Gala took place on Saturday, April 12, 2025, at the Palos Verdes Golf Club. The theme was “Woodstock: A Peace, Love & Music Party,” honoring the beloved musical duo Andy & Renee. Guests came dressed in their best hippie-inspired gala wear, enjoyed groovy drinks, and rocked the night away – with a special set of music by Andy & Renee & Hard Rain!

Proceeds benefit the Grand Annex Music Hall, our music education program Meet the Music and the historic Warner Grand Theatre.
