Humanitarian Awards Celebration

Thank you to the over 150 guests who joined us for our 2025 Humanitarian Awards Celebration on Wednesday, October 8th, 2025, at The Reef in Long Beach. Together, we celebrated the incredible contributions of our honorees — Chuck Barnes, Gene Lentzner Human Relations Award, Julie Meenan, Humanitarian Award, and Musical Theatre West, Building Bridges Award — who are dedicated to promoting equity and justice in Long Beach and beyond. We also officially launched our new name, Confluence Rising!
