Why Ryan Woodard:
This is a deeply inspiring story of hope, inspiration and rebirth and why our Two Rodeo Drive Presents Series chose to showcase Ryan as our very first On the Via Rodeo Concert Series. His story follows our theme of 2025 which is "Butterfly Beginnings" as butterflies represent rebirth and renewal.
About Ryan:
Ryan is an 18 year old from Santa Rosa, California diagnosed with autism at three years old. He didn’t speak until he was 9 years old. His parents tried everything for years, until one day they bought him a guitar, and gave him a video, to see if he could teach himself, as he did not communicate. In one month he taught himself. He discovered that the guitar and music gave him a voice to communicate. He taught himself to sing John Mayer and Coldplay that would make them proud. Today, Ryan is a role model for many neurodivergent children. He represents ‘inspiration' for those diagnosed and shows what can happen with the dedication of loving parents and support. Today, Ryan not only plays, sings and composes but he has a rare gift of being pitch perfect. Ryan Woodward is an example of what - can be -
with fortitude, love and support.
About Our Choice:
We are honored to announce that the proceeds from our upcoming intimate On the Via Rodeo Concert Series will be dedicated to Grant’s Crusade.
It is a cause that reflects the very heart of compassion, resilience, and hope. It is the foundation that brought Ryan’s story to us. Grant’s Crusade is a nonprofit organization that brings awareness of the neurodiverse community. Neurodiversity includes people on the autism spectrum, dyslexia, ADHD among others. They stand as a beacon of support for individuals and families facing these challenges while championing awareness and destigmatization.
In curating this event for you, we sought a charity whose mission embodies the spirit of transformation and uplift values that resonate deeply with our community and with the Experiences we strive to create at Two Rodeo Drive.
By choosing this foundation, we celebrate not only the beauty of coming together through music on the iconic Via Rodeo but also the profound impact we, individually, can make when we stand united for a purpose greater than ourselves.
We invite you to join us in supporting this small and authentic organization.
Your generosity will help empower individuals directly on their journey toward brighter, healthier futures which is an act of kindness - that echoes - far beyond - this moment that we will be providing on the Via Rodeo.
