The Celebration Continues: 20 Years of Young Voices!

Join us on Thursday, October 8, 2026, from 5:30 - 7:30 PM at Farm Fresh Rhode Island for our annual Emerging Brilliance! This is a continuation of our 20th Anniversary Gala and our celebration of 20 incredible years of youth leadership, advocacy, and impact.

Building upon the joy and momentum of the Gala, Emerging Brilliance will showcase the latest work of Young Voices youth leaders, their leadership journeys, and celebrate the people who have helped make the past two decades possible. Whether you joined us at the Gala, have been part of the Young Voices family for years, or are connecting with us for the first time, we invite you to continue the fun and celebration with us!

In the spirit of accessibility and welcoming our entire community, tickets to this celebration are FREE!

While tickets are free, we need every guest to RSVP, and we welcome any donations from our supporters who are able to contribute. Your donation will help offset the cost of hosting the event. Any amount is appreciated!

We hope you’ll join us as we honor our past, celebrate our present, and look ahead to another 20 years of incredible impact!
