Young Playwrights' Theater's Giving Voice Award Gala,

About the event
Since 1995, YPT has worked to help our region's most underrepresented young people realize the power of their voices and stories through the arts. We reach over 2,000 students annually with free playwriting programming integrated directly into local schools, and hundreds of community members through free, professional productions of plays written by our students.
Every spring, YPT hosts our annual marquee fundraising event: the Giving Voice Award Gala. At this gala, we honor a noted community member with our Giving Voice Award, recognizing extraordinary individuals who have exemplified YPT's spirit by giving voice to the voiceless and inspiring others to realize their full potential. Past recipients include Pulitzer-Prize winning playwright Paula Vogel, local activist and artist Andy Shallal and legendary broadcaster Diane Rehm. Our galas have delighted guests with our signature brand of “eclectic elegance” while raising thousands of dollars to support YPT’s work.
The event features a full open bar, hors d'oeuves and dessert buffet, silent auction, and and a dance party with DJ Matt Spangler. During the event program, student speakers share their experience with YPT, and we present the Giving Voice Award. This year, we are thrilled to present our Giving Voice Award to Michael Kahn, Artistic Director of Shakespeare Theatre Company. We look forward to honoring the rich legacy of DC’s theater community and celebrating the next generation of theatrical voices.
Our 2016 Giving Voice Award Gala will take place on Saturday, March 12, 2016 at the North Hall at Eastern Market. We expect over 200 attendees, including prominent arts patrons and community members, and press coverage.
