Our gala stage is set ✨ Meet the incredible lineup of performers helping bring OSD’s 10-year Anniversary Gala to life, featuring talent from across the OSD community and beyond.

Introducing Lemon Rose, made up of four members from OSD’s Performance Team, Lemon Rose will be bringing live music to the OSD Gala with one cover and two original songs, showcasing another side of talent within our community.🌹

Meet Denzel & Blessing ✨
After a year with OSD, Blessing is excited to share another side of her artistry at this year’s gala. While many know her through dance, singing has always been part of her journey, and she’s ready to showcase both her solo work and more. Joining her is Denzel, a fellow OSD Performance Team member who has also been part of the community for the past year. Together, they’re bringing a special duet that blends their passion, talent, and artistry to the stage 🎶

Make way for Magic 5 ✨
Gideon, Fern, Shawn, Lei, and Ardy, these 5 Filipino boys are excited to showcase this performance they’ve been cooking up for y’all! 🪄

Co-President Carolyne Herself ✨
A familiar face in the OSD community, Carolyne, has poured so much passion and heart into this community for the past several years. She’ll be taking the stage with a solo dance performance.💃

Hyping the Night with Gideon✨
Gideon will be taking on the decks at this year’s gala as our DJ for the night. He’ll be taking over the cypher and bringing the soundtrack to close out the night, keeping the energy high and the dance floor moving.💿

🪩 See you all at Gala! 🪩
