History
The Jewel Ball was founded in 1954 by Clara Burnham Hockaday and Enid Jackson Kemper as a fundraiser to support the Kansas City Philharmonic, now the Kansas City Symphony.[1] The Ball has been held each year since its founding in 1954, with the exception of 2020, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The ball is organized annually by an all-volunteer committee.
