Apollo Theater 2011 Spring Gala June 13, 2011

Stevie Wonder and friends will perform at the Apollo Theater's annual Spring Gala Benefit Concert and Awards Ceremony, when the legendary singer is inducted into the Apollo Legends Hall of Fame. The Apollo will also honor Revlon with the Corporate Award and Reginald Van Lee will receive the Percy E. Sutton Civic Leadership Award. The concert is followed by the Apollo Supper Club - a festive tent party with buffet and dancing to the musical arrangements of Celebrity DJ: D-Nice.

The Gala Benefit Concert and Awards Ceremony brings together the best and brightest in business and entertainment in support of the non-profit theater’s remarkable legacy and its initiatives for emerging artists and community and educational programs in New York City and beyond.
