The Historical League presents Arizona Historymakers Gala XII

6:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. at the Arizona Biltmore, 2400 E Missouri Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85016.
The Historymakers Gala is a unique opportunity to celebrate and preserve for future generations the important and diverse contributions made to Arizona history by our honorees. The theme for the evening is "Turquoise & Tuxedos," and the dress is "Western Black Tie" . . . which translates: to wearing what is celebratory, with perhaps a western or turquoise touch, and comfortable and fun for you.
The selected 2017 honorees will be presented and honored at the Gala dinner. The highlight of the evening is a video program that tells each Historymaker’s unique life story and accomplishments.
Tickets are $350/person. There are also sponsorship opportunities.
The Historical League has been holding the Historymakers event since 1992 with the purpose of: raising funds for education, exhibits, and other programs that assist the AZ Heritage Center at Papago Park; contributing to the museum’s artifact, oral history and photograph collections; increasing public awareness of the 80,000-square-foot history museum; recognizing and honoring outstanding living Arizonans and celebrating Arizona’s statehood day, February 14, 1912.
