Where Brain Science, Wine, and Cuisine Sizzle!

​

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 28th Music Festival for Brain Health held on Saturday, September 10th at Staglin Family Vineyard!

Through your attendance and generosity, more than $3 million was raised for One Mind, pushing our annual fundraising total to over $12 million.

The event began with an engaging scientific symposium, featuring keynote speaker Regina E. Dugan, PhD, President & CEO, Wellcome Leap, Inc., as well as Christopher M. Palmer, MD, Director of the Department of Postgraduate and Continuing Education at McLean Hospital and Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. A symposium highlight was the research summary presentations of the three 2022 One Mind COMPASS Pathways Rising Star awardees who spoke about their One Mind funded research projects.

Following the symposium, a tasting of some of the world’s most acclaimed wines took place outdoors on the Staglin Family Vineyard grounds, with hors d’oeuvres provided by Michelin 3-Star Chef Christopher & Martina Kostow of Loveski Deli in Napa. The day continued with two rousing live concert performances by multi award-winning recording artists and One Mind Champions Jewel and Hunter Hayes, followed by an impromptu auction for a guitar with Jewel’s signature and artwork. Bidding was so competitive that Jewel agreed to donate a second guitar, raising $170,000 for the two custom decorated instruments.

Immediately following the concert, VIP guests enjoyed a post-concert dinner created by multi-award-winning Chef Sarah Grueneberg of renowned Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio in Chicago, perfectly paired with Staglin Family Vineyard wines. The spirit of generosity continued with a fund-a-need effort that raised $845,000 to support One Mind’s initiatives.
