30th Annual Arts Awards
The Stockton Arts Commission is putting the last glamorous touches on the 30th Annual Arts Awards Celebration to be held at the Bob Hope Theatre on Friday, October 19. The opening reception begins at 6:30 pm and the awards presentations will start at 8 pm. Along with honoring some outstanding individuals and organizations for their contributions to the arts, the event will offer the community the opportunity to come together to share fine food and wine and to experience performances by some of Stockton’s outstanding artists.
Don’t eat dinner, as Delicato Vineyards will be the featured winery and several restaurants, all coordinated by the Downtown Stockton Alliance will be a part of “A Taste of Downtown”, that will be offering samples of the delicious foods that are their specialties. Try everything, as the food will be fantastic. Entertainment during the reception will include quartets from the Stockton Barbershop Chapter and the Cesar Chavez High School Mariachi Band. A fine arts exhibit curated by the Tidewater Gallery will also be featured. Join us in the theatre as we honor the 2007 award winners which this year includes Tony Washington, Margaret Zuckerman, S.O.M.E. (Sponsors of Musical Enrichment), Donald Corren, Rita Wilcox, the St. John’s Chamber Orchestra and Peter Ottesen. Featured entertainers during the evening will include the The New Dance Company, the Apollo Night Performers, actors from the Stockton Civic Theatre, Delta College and much, much more. The entire evening will be highlighted by the outstanding videography of Sophoan Sorn.
