For more than 100 years, Allan Hancock College has been changing the odds through the work of our alumni, faculty, staff, and friends of the college. Now, it’s time to recognize those change-makers at a new signature event. The celebration is set for September 9, 2023, at the college’s new Fine Arts Complex.
The evening event will showcase the Fine Arts Complex and will be the major public event in the building’s new 350-seat recital hall featuring interactive art installations, live painting, music by the San Francisco-based Jazz Mafia … and a few surprises along the way.
2023 HONOREES
Patricia (Patty) Boyd
Patty was a beloved piano teacher in Santa Maria who left a transformative gift to the college at her passing in 2012. At that time, the $13 million bequest was the second largest gift to a California community college.
Ann Foxworthy Lewellen
Ann was Hancock's seventh president and the only woman to hold that position permanently. Today she is an active community leader in the Santa Ynez Valley, most recently leading the $5 million campaign to renovate Solvang Theaterfest.
Tommy Soulati Shepherd
Tommy is a double graduate from PCPA (completing both the acting and technical theater programs) who won a GRAMMY Award this year for Best Children’s Album as co-founder of the group Alphabet Rockers.SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
