Denim & Diamonds Spotlight
April 25th, 2026
Celebrating What’s New and What’s Next for Denim & Diamonds
For more than a decade, the Denim & Diamonds Bash has been an event where celebration meets purpose, uniting our community in powerful support of mental health care at Luminis Health Anne Arundel Medical Center and J. Kent McNew Family Medical Center. On April 26, 2025, 1,000 guests and 100 sponsors came together to raise $1 million to support young patients navigating mental health challenges and the caregivers who walk beside them every day.
What’s next? We’re making a thoughtful shift to host the Denim & Diamonds Bash every other year, so when we come together, the impact is bigger than ever. Join us on Saturday, April 24, 2027.
But don’t worry, 2026 will be far from a quiet year. In between Bashes, we’re creating fresh, meaningful ways to stay connected in a whole new way. We are proud to introduce Denim & Diamonds Spotlight, an intimate, elevated, dinner program that celebrates stories of resilience from those who live in the spotlight on the national stage.
A New Look. A Deeper Impact.
Introducing Denim & Diamonds Spotlight
We are proud to introduce Denim & Diamonds Spotlight, an intimate, elevated, dinner program that celebrates stories of resilience from those who live in the spotlight on the national stage.
On Saturday, April 25, 2026, Denim & Diamonds Spotlight is proud to host a conversation with the most decorated female swimmer in history, Katie Ledecky, moderated by broadcast journalist, Chris Wallace. They will discuss Katie’s Olympic journey and the role that perseverance, purpose, and mental health resources play at the highest levels of competition as well as right here in our community.
We can’t wait for an unforgettable evening of inspiration, brought to you by two extraordinary speakers that will shine a light on the impact we can make together—right here, close to home.
Spotlight and many other sponsor benefits will only be available to early sponsors of the 2027 Denim & Diamonds Bash, so reach out soon to reserve your place at what will be a night you won’t want to miss!
