On November 9, 2026, Art Garfunkel will headline the 2026 Andy Roddick Foundation Gala at ACL Live at The Moody Theater in Austin, Texas. The Andy Roddick Foundation has announced the singer as the featured performer for the evening.
The gala brings together business leaders, supporters, and philanthropists for a special evening that combines music, entertainment, and community engagement. The program includes a cocktail reception, an engaging program, an exclusive live auction, an elegant dinner, and a live concert featuring Art Garfunkel.
At the same time, the event highlights the Andy Roddick Foundation’s commitment to supporting children and families in Central Texas. The foundation supports free, year-round after-school and summer learning programs for children who do not have access to high-quality programs of this kind.
Through these programs, the foundation works to reduce what is known as the “6,000-hour learning gap” between children who participate in learning programs outside of school hours and those who do not have access to these opportunities. According to the Andy Roddick Foundation, participating children meet standards on statewide tests in reading and math at rates up to 21 percent higher than their peers.
With his performance at the gala, Art Garfunkel will be part of this special evening, bringing his distinctive voice together with the commitment to providing better educational opportunities for children and young people in Central Texas.
