Ovation 2018:
Bet on a Fabulous Time
We’re jockeying for your unbridled enthusiasm at this year’s UMS Ovation on Saturday, May 5 — where you can bet on a fabulous time.
Join us to celebrate in high style amidst the excitement of the Kentucky Derby — with mint juleps and craft cocktails, a strolling dinner, artistic surprises, select items to “bet” on, and the best company this side of Churchill Downs.
And it’s all to champion the UMS Education and Community Engagement programs, which engage students, educators, and our community in uncommon and creative learning experiences — right here in Michigan. Hats off to that!
