Jay Stollman & the Black Rock All-Stars are set to reunite and headline the Jamie Hulley Arts Foundation's 23rd Annual Evening for the Arts Gala. This special event will take place on Saturday, September 6, 2025, at Fairfield University's Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts. The evening kicks off with a reception and raffle preview at 6:30 p.m., where light refreshments will be served. The performance is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets for this highly anticipated event are priced at $50 in advance or $60 at the door. They can be purchased through the Quick Center Box Office at (203) 254-4010 or online at https://fairfield.evenue.net/event/QC2526/REN090625. Attendees can look forward to experiencing the energy and electrifying beat of Fairfield County’s "original" Funk-Jam Band, back together for one night only. The set list promises to be overflowing with Classic Soul and R&B hits. Jay Stollman, a veteran performer and recording artist, has a remarkable history of performing worldwide with musical legends such as The Rascals, James Brown, Elton John, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Peter Frampton, Blues Traveler, Jose Feliciano, Joan Jett, and Diana Ross, among others. This reunion concert is designed as a joy-filled journey back in time, revisiting the All-Stars' legendary performances featuring hits from James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Wilson Pickett, Tower of Power, and many more.

The event is a benefit for the Jamie Hulley Arts Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the educational enrichment and professional development of young artists and early career professionals. The foundation was established to celebrate the life of Jamie Alaine Hulley. All proceeds from the Gala will directly support scholarships, educational programs, and community project sponsorships throughout Connecticut, with a particular focus on the greater New Haven and Fairfield counties. Since its inception in 2002, the foundation has awarded over $1 million, positively impacting the lives of thousands of area youth each year.
