37TH ANNUAL BOSTON INTERNATIONAL TRAUMA CONFERENCE
Lunch & Evening Events
Friday Gala Dinner
Join us for a special evening of connection, celebration, and music at the conference Gala Dinner. Guests will enjoy a seated dinner with drinks while gathering with colleagues, friends, and members of the Trauma Research Foundation community.
The evening features two musical performances. First, internationally acclaimed Hungarian singer-songwriter Bea Palya blends Hungarian, Balkan, and Romani folk music with jazz and world influences. Her powerful, expressive songs explore humanity, identity, and transformation, creating a memorable experience.
Next, we’ll dance the night away with The Jeff Jones Zone, led by multi-instrumentalist Jeff W. Jones, which brings dynamic, improvisational music inspired by African rhythms and global traditions. Their lively performance creates a vibrant, energetic atmosphere for all.
This festive evening offers a chance to relax, celebrate our shared work, and experience the power of music to bring people together.
