FEATURING RONEE MARTIN, MARIA HOWELL & VIOLINIST KAREN BRIGGS
 
“Girls in Gowns” is a unique musical initiative created by singer and actor Maria Howell. This collaborative project features female performers coming together to showcase their talents while dressed in elegant gowns. The concept blends various musical genres, highlighting the diverse capabilities of each performer. The inaugural performance of “Girls in Gowns” took place at a fundraising event over 10 years ago, for Students Without Mothers, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting students, who have lost their mothers. Over time, the event has grown in popularity, becoming a highly anticipated occasion, wherever it’s presented. It not only celebrates musical artistry, but also raises funds for scholarships, continuing to support and empower deserving students in need. www.studentswithoutmothers.org
