An Evening with Shelli and Irving Azoff Tribute Book

SEPTEMBER 2 1 , 2022 AN EVENING WITH SHELLI AND IRVING AZOFF All proceeds will benefit the Artistic, Educational and Outreach programs of The Wallis Honorary Co-Chairs WALLIS ANNENBERG LYNDA & STEWART RESNICK Event Co-Chairs CATHY & MARK LOUCHHEIM SUSAN & PETER E. STRAUSS "If our minds can conceive it, and our hearts can believe it - then we can achieve it." - Inspired by Muhammad Ali

We raise our glasses to these remarkable arts leaders. Whether you know Irving from his role at the helm of the careers of the Eagles, Steely Dan, Bon Jovi and Chelsea Handler and many more; or Shelli as the driving force behind the remodel of the Fabulous Forum, the managing partner of The Azoff Restaurant Group which brought The Apple Pan and Nate ‘n Al’s delicatessen back from the brink of closure; or their tireless philanthropy; it is evident that the Azoffs are a credit to our city. Shelli and Irving, you have our immense admiration, and our gratitude.

Finally, a thank you to all of the artists performing tonight, as well as to the staff led by Rachel Fine who have collaborated to make this extraordinary evening a Asreality.ourhonorees

We could not be more elated to join you in celebrating one of Los Angeles’ most extraordinary couples: entertainment icons and restauranteurs Shelli and Irving Azoff.

TO LEARN AND GROW THROUGH THE ARTS.

The Wallis’ School Partners Program welcomes thousands of Los Angeles area 1st through 12th grade students each year to special student matinee performances with local, national, and international artists in music, dance, and theater. GRoW @ The Wallis also offers master classes with visiting artists who provide exceptional opportunities for young people to learn from some of the greatest artists of our time such as Suzanne Farrell, Judith Jamison, Patti LuPone, Arturo Sandoval.

Thanks to a generous gift from Gregory Annenberg Weingarten and Family, our campus includes a wing dedicated to sharing the arts with learners of all ages. Arts learning is integral to all that we do at The Wallis: connecting audiences with the very best in the performing arts; using the power of the arts to build community and address pressing social issues; and responding to critical needs in the greater community through arts leadership, collaboration, and partnership. Our GRoW programs serve youth, serious young artists, and older adults, in classrooms, online, and inside of our theaters.
