Apr 25, 2026 at 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Paris Junior College Emerald & Gold Gala 2026

Save the date for the 2026 PJC Emerald & Gold Gala.

An Evening With Purpose

The Paris Junior College Gala is a celebration of light—of students striving toward their goals, of donors who believe in their potential, and of a community committed to education.

Every Light Becomes a Legacy reflects the idea that when you invest in a student, your impact reaches far beyond one moment. It becomes a story of access, achievement, and transformation that lives on for generations.

Proceeds from the Gala directly support:

-Student scholarships
-Emergency assistance
-Academic and workforce programs
-Student success initiatives

Your support helps:

-Keep students enrolled during unexpected hardships
-Reduce financial stress so students can focus on learning
-Strengthen programs that lead directly to careers
-Every student success story begins with someone who chose to give.

A Night to Remember

Guests will enjoy an elegant evening designed to inspire and connect:

-Cocktail reception
-Seated dinner
-Live entertainment
-Student stories and impact moments
-Recognition of honorary hosts Drs. Gregory and Amanda Green
-Opportunities to invest directly in student success
