Photo Coverage: White Plains Performing Arts Center 2009 Gala

The event honored Dr. Marsha Gordon, President and CEO of the Business Council of Westchester for her leadership and enormous support of the Westchester business community; Isabel Villar, Founding Executive Director of El Centro Hispano, Inc. for her endless commitment to the Hispanic community of Westchester; and Barbara and Richard B. Dannenberg, for their patronage and continuous support of the arts in Westchester.

White Plains Performing Arts Center is located on the third level of City Center at the corner of Main and Mamaroneck in downtown White Plains, NY, just 30 minutes from midtown Manhattan, with plenty of convenient parking. 

White Plains Performing Arts Center brings innovative and eclectic entertainment and classic Broadway musicals to appreciative audiences who live throughout the county and beyond. It is Westchester's only professional regional theatre. Under the direction of Executive Producer Jack W. Batman, the 410-seat, $6 million theatre also hosts local, national and international performing artists whose work reflects Westchester's diverse population, and operates the Westchester Conservatory for the Performing Arts, a year-round professional theatre training program for youth and adults. The 2008-2009 Season is sponsored by the Louis R. Cappelli Foundation, and made possible, in part, by grants from the City of White Plains, Bank of America, Entergy and other corporations, foundations and individual donors.
