Some of the nation’s finest artists gathered in support of arts programs in public schools at Susan and Tony Bennett’s Exploring The Arts Gala. Star power flexed, the program raised over $1.2 mil, proving nobody’s better at supporting arts education than artists themselves.
Guests included host Whoopi Goldberg, Gayle King, Joy and Regis Philbin, Donna Karan, Mitch Albom, George and Mariana Kaufman, Katie Couric, Sumner Redstone, Quincy Jones, Iris Cantor, Michael Imperioli, Steve Wynn, and John Desiderio. All rallied to lend generous support and enjoy sparkling entertainment, including a performance by funnyman Jerry Seinfeld and serenades by crooners Terrence Howard, John Mayer, and Tony Bennett.
