Affair: Night by the Ocean Gala w/Jason Mraz

When: Saturday, September 24, 2016 @ 5-10PM

Hot Spot: Jonathan Beach Club, Santa Monica, Los Angeles, CA

Deets: Join Life Rolls On for this transformational evening celebrating freedom beyond paralysis. The ocean breeze rustling the palms. The sizzle of Brazilian barbecue. Glasses clinking in celebratory toasts. Music lilting over the sand. And laughter. So much love and laughter. It's quite possibly the best night of the year.

A little reggae, a little rock, one big, big sound ... and Mother Nature contributing the backdrop of the sun ablaze setting into the Pacific. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday night.
