DESCRIPTION:Get Elkhart County Symphony Tickets\n			\n				Ticket & Hotel Packages\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n¡Ritmo Botánico! – Sept. 13\, 2026 –  Wellfield Botanic Gardens\nSeason 79 opens with joy\, color\, rhythm\, and community celebration in ¡Ritmo Botánico!\, an outdoor musical experience serving as a prelude to Hispanic Heritage Month. \nFeaturing music by Moncayo\, Piazzolla\, de Falla\, and Márquez\, the concert celebrates both the musical traditions of Spain and Latin America and the enduring cultural impact Hispanic communities have had on Elkhart County for generations. \nThe region’s connection to Hispanic heritage stretches back to the mid-20th-century agricultural boom\, when Mexican laborers arrived in northern Indiana through the Bracero Program to help meet wartime and postwar labor shortages. Many families later established permanent roots in Goshen and Elkhart County\, helping shape the vibrant and growing Latino community that remains central to the region’s cultural and economic identity today. \nThe Symphony plans to involve local Hispanic community leaders and cultural representatives\, strengthening the connection between orchestral music and the community it serves. \nSymphony oboist Heidi Eash will be featured in Astor Piazzolla’s hauntingly lyrical Oblivion\, adding a subdued yet intimate expression to an afternoon designed to celebrate movement\, heritage\, and shared cultural experience. \nRepertoire Highlights\n\nMoncayo — Huapango\nPiazzolla — Oblivion\nPiazzolla — Libertango\nde Falla — Three Dances from The Three-Cornered Hat\nMárquez — Danzón No. 2\n\n\n			\n				Get Elkhart County Symphony Tickets\n			\n				Ticket & Hotel Packages

Set against the backdrop of Central Green\, this year’s event will transform the space into another dynamic\, high-energy atmosphere. Celebration Under the Stars showcases the very best of Elkhart: a community rooted in music\, driven by creativity\, and committed to creating extraordinary experiences. \nBoyz II Men \nBoyz II Men redefined popular R&B and continue to tour with their timeless hits that appeal to fans across all generations. The band has penned and performed some of the most celebrated classics of the past three decades. Music lovers can expect favorites such as “End of the Road\,” “I’ll Make Love to You\,” “One Sweet Day” and “Motownphilly.” \nThe group’s four GRAMMY® Awards are just the tip of the iceberg. Throughout their 30 plus-year career\, Boyz II Men has also won a whopping nine American Music Awards\, nine Soul Train Awards\, three Billboard Music Awards and a MOBO Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. Boyz II Men’s accolades also include receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and a Casino Entertainment Award for the group’s acclaimed residency at the Mirage Resort and Casino in Las Vegas\, which launched in 2013. \nThe trio holds the distinction of being the best-selling R&B group of all time\, with an astounding 64 million albums sold. The reason is abundantly clear — for the past three decades\, Boyz II Men has given fans a rich catalog of hits filled with smooth harmonies and enduring themes and for Boyz II Men\, the hits just keep on coming. The group continues to bring its legendary act to stages across the world. \nIn 2021\, Boyz II Men starred in ABC’s “A Very Boy Band Holiday\,” “Live in Front of a Studio Audience: The Facts of Life and Diff’rent Strokes\,” and “CMT Crossroads Christmas: Brett Young & Friends.” In November 2023\, Boyz II Men starred in a national television spot by recreating the iconic Chili’s Baby Back Ribs jingle\, which turned into a viral sensation for the next generation. \nThe trio opened the 2024 NFL season by singing the national anthem for Monday Night Football and performed it again at F1 in Las Vegas last November. Ending the 2024 holiday season Boyz II Men also collaborated with the Kelce brothers for a new Christmas song. \nIn 2025\, the group announced they will be working on a biopic movie and documentary. Most recently they are featured on music from the Disneyland Resort 70th celebration with their rendition of “Rainbow Connection.” As they continue to tour across the world the group just wrapped a sold-out tour run called “The New Edition Way.” \nThe Jacksons \nThe Jacksons recently celebrated 50 years as one of the most successful groups in music history. \nJackie\, Tito\, Jermaine\, Marlon and Michael\, five brothers from Gary\, Indiana\, known originally as The Jackson 5 and later The Jacksons\, rose to fame for their combination of extraordinary musical talent and spectacular choreography. They earned the status of pop royalty in the music world\, providing the launching pad for what would become Michael Jackson’s legendary solo career. \nThe group found international success at Motown in 1969\, their first single “I Want You Back” reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Their next 3 singles “ABC”\, “The Love You Save” and “I’ll Be There” followed suit\, The Jackson 5 literally making music history with 4 debut singles all reaching No. 1. They ultimately scored 17 Top Forty singles on the Hot 100\, following with hits such as “Never Can Say Goodbye” and “Dancing Machine”. To date\, their Motown recordings alone have sold in excess of 200 million. \nIn 1976\, the group left Motown for Epic Records\, and changed their name to The Jacksons. They released five hit albums between 1976 and 1981\, including The Jacksons (1976)\, Destiny (1978) and Triumph (1980)\, from which they produced the smash singles “Enjoy Yourself”\, “Blame It On The Boogie”\, “Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)” and “Can You Feel It.” In 1983\, the band performed on “Motown 25: Yesterday\, Today\, Forever”\, and subsequently released the Victory album the following year\, (which included the Billboard No. 3 hit ‘State Of Shock’ featuring Mick Jagger). When the brothers united for The Victory Tour in 1984\, it became the highest-grossing concert series ever staged in the United States. \nThe Jacksons have become the inspiration for several generations of boy bands\, including Backstreet Boys\, New Edition\, N*SYNC\, New Kids on the Block\, and more recently\, the Jonas Brothers\, One Direction\, and many more. \nIn 1980\, The Jacksons were honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. They were inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997\, and the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1999. At the BMI Urban Awards in 2008\, The Jacksons were honored as BMI Icons. In 2016\, “ABC” joined “I Want You Back” to be inducted into the Recording Academy’s Grammy Hall of Fame. \n			\n				Sign Up To Get Event Updates\n			\n				Prohibited Items List\n			\n				DORA Information & FAQ

SUMMARY:2026 Mental Health Symposium: Sheryl Swoopes & Friends
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nThe 2nd Annual Mental Health Symposium brings together music\, mental wellness\, and motivation in an unforgettable event led by WNBA and Basketball Legend Sheryl Swoopes. A 2016 Nasmith Basketball Hall of Fame inductee Swoopes has broken barriers in music\, fashion\, culture and basketball worldwide. Beyond the basketball\, her journey has been deeply personal and inspiring\, and we are pleased to host this Q&A and community discussion. \nSheryl Swoopes \nThe first woman to ever be signed to the WNBA. First woman to have a signature shoe with Nike. Olympian\, WNBA MVP\, and WNBA champion. What hasn’t Sheryl Swoopes done? \nWomen’s professional basketball is still a relatively new thing in the United States. For someone like Sheryl Swoopes\, the role models and heroines she looked up to on the basketball court usually made their legends in the college ranks\, before falling into obscurity after the conclusion of their amateur tenures or going off to play in Europe until the Olympics every four years. Despite the question mark surrounding the chance to make a name for herself in the sport that she loved\, Sheryl Swoopes always knew that basketball was her passion. At just seven years old\, she played little league basketball in her native Brownfield\, TX. In high school\, she played for the Brownfield Cubs\, where she grew to a full six feet tall. As a senior\, Swoopes led the Cubs with 26.7 and 13 rebounds per game en route to a Class 3A All-State selection and a second-team Parade All-American nod. \nAfter high school\, Swoopes played two years at South Plains Community College (Levelland\, TX) where her 1\,381 total points in just two years set the career scoring mark between the years 1975-1991\, where the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) only had one division for women’s basketball. Her prolific offensive prowess did not stop in Levelland\, because after two years she transferred to Texas Tech. The school’s website hails her as the “most decorated athlete in Texas Tech history.” The praise is justified; in her senior season alone Swoopes scored 28.1 points per game while leading the Lady Raiders to Southwest Conference regular season and tournament championships\, respectively\, and the NCAA Championship in 1993. Sheryl Swoopes’ name is on 30 total NCAA women’s basketball records as a Lady Raider\, as well as the school’s single game points record\, 53. In 1994\, Texas Tech retired Sheryl Swoopes’ No. 22 jersey\, and she was inducted into the school’s Hall of Fame in 2003. \nIn 1995\, while playing for Basket Bari\, an Italian club team\, Swoopes made history by becoming the first woman to have a signature athletic shoe with Nike. The shoe\, called the Air Swoopes\, helped pave the way for more female athletes to receive shoe deals like Nike’s Dawn Staley and A’ja Wilson\, as well as Adidas’ Candace Parker. According to kickstory\, a shoe and style based website\, the original Air Swoopes were designed to be lighter and less bulky than men’s shoes at the time\, fit for Sheryl’s game. The shoes also used Nike’s latest and greatest technology to offer unparalleled ankle support. There were seven total iterations of the Air Swoopes line\, with the last being the Nike Air Tuned Swoopes\, released in 1999. \nWhen the WNBA held their first draft in April 1997\, Swoopes was allocated to the Houston Comets due to her Texas origins. She was also the very first player in the league’s history to sign a contract with a team. Her second seaosn as a pro is where the magic really happened. It was then that Swoopes started a streak of four seasons as a first-team WNBA selection in seasons where she played more than 10 games\, only missing the 2001 season with a torn ACL. In 2002\, her first year back\, Swoopes picked up without missing a beat\, winning both league MVP and Defensive Player of the Year\, scoring 18.5 points and snaring 2.8 steals per game. At the 2011 WNBA All-Star Game\, the year she retired\, she was recognized as one of the WNBA’s 15 greatest players at the time. \nInternationally\, Swoopes starred on the US Women’s National Team\, winning gold at the 1996\, 2000\, and 2004 Olympics\, respectively. She is one of 11 players to win an Olympic gold medal\, FIBA World Cup gold medal\, WNBA\, and an NCAA championship. In 2016\, she was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. \nIn her post-playing career\, Sheryl Swoopes served as an assistant coach at Mercer Island High School (WA) in 2010\, a Texas Tech WBB color analyst (2012-13 and 2017-18 seasons)\, and varying assistant roles on both the Loyola University Chicago and Texas Tech women’s teams. \nIn the basketball space\, Sheryl Swoopes was a trailblazer. Not only was she a dynamic force for decades on the court\, but she paved the path and gave the blueprint for all women that came after her. It is only right that we honor her as the WNBA’s first legend. \nFeaturing Special Guest: Aubrey Massey \nAubrey Massey is a 2026 graduate of Saint Ursula Academy and a dedicated student-athlete in Track & Field. Her athletic journey began in youth AAU track and has provided her with firsthand experience of both the rewards and challenges of competitive athletics. Through her own experiences and those of her peers\, Aubrey has gained a deep understanding of the mental\, emotional\, and social pressures student-athletes face\, including anxiety\, depression\, performance-related stress\, and the challenge of balancing academics\, athletics\, and personal expectations. \nDriven by a passion for supporting fellow athletes\, Aubrey founded Person-Centered Athletic Network (PCAN)\, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to creating safe spaces where student-athletes can build confidence\, openly discuss mental health\, and learn how to “cope and compete” without fear or stigma. Through PCAN\, she co-hosted The Athlete: Mental Health Summit\, impacting more than 300 students and bringing together dozens of speakers\, collegiate professionals\, and community leaders. She also leads PCAN’s flagship Ambassador Program\, overseeing a team of 45 trained high school athletes certified in Mental Wellness First Aid who teach social-emotional learning\, leadership\, and conflict resolution to elementary and junior high school students. \nAubrey’s leadership extends beyond her nonprofit work. At Saint Ursula Academy\, she served as Class Vice President throughout all four years of high school and was an active member of the Diversity Advisory Committee\, helping strengthen school culture and advocate for her fellow students. As captain of the Track & Field team\, she demonstrated exceptional leadership while earning six school records. \nThis fall\, Aubrey will continue her academic and athletic career at Robert Morris University\, where she will compete as a Division I track and field athlete. She plans to major in Health Science on the pre-dental track while continuing her commitment to leadership\, service\, and the well-being of student-athletes. \nFeaturing Special Guest: Jonelle Massey \nJonelle Massey is a nationally certified licensed mental health therapist for 20+ years. \nShe received her undergraduate and graduate degrees from Xavier University in Cincinnati\, Ohio.

Her successful debut book that has sold over 3000 copies dismantles traditional ideas about how we should be practicing empathy.
