About the Event
Join us for this fun and festive night featuring moving performances and tributes that remind us why exposure to the performing arts for young people is essential to Times Square and New York City’s cultural and economic vibrancy. It is an exciting moment to recognize and thank our donors and community leaders, and to celebrate the accomplishments of our artists and staff. And it is our biggest opportunity to raise vital funding for our work.
