Embarking on the next 25 years of raising funds to support
innovative research and the development of new therapies, this
year’s festival features in-person 'Supper Club' dining
experiences, as well virtual experiences, at select Del Frisco's
Double Eagle Steakhouses and Mastro’s Steakhouses around the
country. A departure from the annual gathering at the Staglin
Family Vineyard, this year’s format allows supporters to
participate while staying within their “comfort zone.”
The day begins at 10:00 a.m. PDT with the Scientific Symposium
webinar and Q&A with leaders in brain health, featuring Victor
Dzau, MD, President of the National Academy of Medicine, and
Michelle Craske, PhD, Director of UCLA’s Anxiety and Depression
Research Center, plus One Mind’s 2020 Rising Star Award-winners
discussing groundbreaking scientific discoveries in the brain
health field. Moderated by Eric Nestler, MD, PhD, Director of the
Mount Sinai Friedman Brain Institute, the symposium is free with
registration.
At 4:30 p.m. PDT / 7:30 p.m. EDT, donors may enjoy dinner out at
one of Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse’s sixteen locations and
participating Mastro’s Steakhouse locations. This Wine & Jazz
‘Supper Club' experience will be held in each restaurant’s private
dining room, featuring a multi-course dinner by Chef Ariel Fox
paired with the wines of Staglin Family Vineyard.
The Wine & Jazz ‘Supper Club’ can also be experienced as a
take-out dinner kit to enjoy at home. At 5:00 p.m. PDT / 8:00 p.m.
EDT, ten-time GRAMMY Award-winner Arturo Sandoval and an ensemble
band will perform an exclusive streaming web concert.
26th Music Festival for Brain Health donors unable to attend a

Frisco's or Mastro’s is a $2,500 donation/pp, the 'Supper Club
Take-Out Meal Kit for Two' is a $2,000 donation, and access to the
