Fall Benefit

Melissa Etheridge honored with NMWA Award for Excellence in the Performing Arts and performed at the 25th Anniversary Fall Benefit.

On November 4, 2012, legendary singer/songwriter Melissa Etheridge received NMWA’s Award for Excellence in the Performing Arts at this year’s event benefiting the Shenson Chamber Music Concerts, NMWA’s annual series showcasing women musicians. Melissa Etheridge’s impressive contributions to American rock and roll have placed her among the musical greats celebrated in the museum’s current exhibition, Women Who Rock: Vision, Passion, Power. 

We would like to thank our co-chairs Martha Lynn Dippell and Nancy Duber, members of committee, guests, sponsors, and volunteers for making this event a success.
