NEW DATE: The Southland Creative Spotlight — Saturday, June 26, 2027 at 7:30 PM

The Southland Creative Spotlight, originally scheduled for September 19, 2026, has been rescheduled for Saturday, June 26, 2027, at 7:30 PM.

Communities throughout the Southland have recently been affected by severe storms and tornadoes, and municipal staff and community partners have appropriately shifted their attention and resources to support residents and recovery efforts. Moving the event will allow participating communities to fully re-engage and give the Spotlight the time and attention needed to deliver the regional celebration we envisioned.

Already have tickets? No action is needed. All tickets purchased for the original September 19 performance will automatically be transferred to the new June 26 date.

If you are unable to attend the rescheduled performance, please contact The Center Box Office at 708-235-2222 to discuss credit or refund options.
