Welcome to the Frank and Gary show! In this episode, we explore their extraordinary journey from meeting post-military service to becoming pillars of the Winston-Salem arts community.
Discover how their quest for acceptance led them to the doorstep of the arts, where they found a sanctuary of inclusivity and friendship. As honorary co-chairs of the annual Magnolia Ball, Frank and Gary reflect on their advocacy for civil rights, their passion for opera, and their unwavering support for local talent and scholarships.
With humor, grace, and a touch of sass, Frank and Gary share their secret to a 60-year partnership that's as vibrant as the performances they adore. From their first opera mishap to their latest endeavors to grow the arts in the Triad, their story is a testament to the power of community, love, and a life richly lived.
Join us for an unforgettable conversation that's as enlightening as it is entertaining, and be inspired by two men who've not only witnessed history but have also made a bit of their own.
