Berklee's Black Scholars Initiative will be holding its annual Spring Gala on April 21. BSI previously held its Spring Gala in April of 2019. Due to the pandemic, this celebration has not taken place since!

We are so excited to bring this event back and celebrate our program and what lies at its core: community

The Spring Gala is a chance for the BSI Community, which is comprised of students, mentors, and the BSI leadership team, to come together and celebrate the school year.
