All of the proceeds from the Gala benefited the Walnut Street Theatre's Education and Outreach programming, which is used to reach over 110,000 children annually in the Delaware Valley.
The annual event is held to honor members of the business and artistic communities with the Edwin Forrest Award for their contributions to American Theatre. This year, the award honored Walnut Street media partner NBC-10 and Diane Dalto Woosnam, former Chairman of the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.
