SUMMARY:Big & Tall Fest
DESCRIPTION:On July 19\, right in the heart of Disability Pride Month\, Big & Tall Recording hosted its very first Big & Tall Fest at the Williams Center in Rutherford. The 10-hour music marathon drew more than 600 guests\, supported by over 140 volunteers\, and featured 28 live acts. A special needs choir opened the day\, setting an inspiring and celebratory tone that carried through each performance. \nThe festival wasn’t just about great music—it had a mission. Every dollar raised went directly to support the services we provide for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). In the end\, the event generated $12\,000. \nThe lineup included emerging artists and bands\, many of whom shared a personal connection to the cause. For Big & Tall Recording\, the day was about more than music. “This festival was created as a space to celebrate local talent in a way that is uplifting\, inclusive\, and meaningful—all in support of a cause close to our hearts\,” shared Big & Tall co-founder Gabe Valle. \nNCFL’s Director of Development\, Sharon Scimeca\, expressed gratitude for the partnership. “Big & Tall Fest not only raised critical funds for our life-changing services but also helped shine a light on the urgent need for programs that serve the I/DD community. We’re proud to be recognized as a leader in providing the highest level of care for this underserved population.” \nDon’t worry if you missed the festival! Work has already begun on securing a date and venue for the 2nd Annual Big & Tall Fest! Stay tuned\, you do not want to miss another!  \nCheck out some photos from the event!
