Add your bloom
to the gala-night tribute.

A special opening-night campaign for those attending the gala and those cheering from afar. Supporters make a gift, share a tribute message, and help build a collective floral tribute in honor of Dr. Penney or in celebration of a CLYMOVE dancer at the company’s 6th Anniversary Gala.

On Thursday, April 9, CLYMOVE will honor Dr. Phyllis Penney at its 6th Anniversary Gala, a special evening celebrating the power of women’s mentorship. Dr. Penney’s impact has shaped generations of artists, educators, and leaders.

Through Build the Bouquet, alumni, friends, and supporters can be part of this moment from anywhere. Make a gift, add a short message of gratitude, memory, or encouragement, and help build a meaningful tribute for gala night.

At the heart of the campaign is a tribute to Dr. Penney, while also offering supporters the opportunity to recognize and encourage a favorite CLYMOVE dancer.

Supporters who give by the tribute deadline will have their messages included in the tribute presentation. Messages honoring Dr. Penney will also be gathered into a commemorative digital tribute book created for her after the event.

How It Works

Choose your gift level, select whether your tribute is for Dr. Phyllis Penney or a CLYMOVE dancer, and add a short message. Each gift helps build a collective floral tribute for gala night, with flowers and messages shared during this special recognition moment.

Messages submitted by April 5, 2026 will be included in the tribute presentation. Messages honoring Dr. Phyllis Penney will also be gathered into a commemorative digital tribute book created for her after the event.
