Unity Table’s Symphony at Sunset united community leaders, healthcare professionals, artists, and residents for an inspiring evening of music, civic engagement, and meaningful collaboration.
On July 23, community leaders, healthcare professionals, nonprofit organizations, business executives, artists, and residents gathered at The Highlawn for Unity Table’s Symphony at Sunset, presented in collaboration with Newark Symphony Hall. The evening highlighted the arts as a catalyst for civic engagement and community connection.
The event brought together leaders from multiple sectors, including elected officials and mayors from municipalities across Essex County, reflecting a shared commitment to building stronger communities through dialogue and collaboration.
One notable aspect of the evening was the growing partnership between Unity Table and Newark Symphony Hall, which demonstrated how arts and community initiatives can intersect to create platforms for engagement and connection.
Support from organizations such as CareWell Health Medical Center underscored the value of cross-sector investment in community-focused initiatives, reflecting a shared commitment to public health and community engagement.
“Unity Table was founded on the belief that meaningful change begins with meaningful conversations,” said Jay Wayman, founder of Unity Table. “When people from different backgrounds come together with mutual respect and a shared purpose, we create opportunities that strengthen our communities and inspire lasting solutions.”
Margarita Duran, President of the Board of Little Box of Love, d/b/a Unity Table, added, “The strength of Unity Table comes from the partnerships we have built with healthcare organizations, nonprofit leaders, businesses, volunteers, and residents. Every relationship represents an opportunity to create meaningful impact together.”
