On September 23, 2023, Project Angel Food’s highly anticipated summer gala, the Angel Awards, returned after a three-year pandemic hiatus, and took place under the stars just outside the agency’s kitchen on Vine Street in Hollywood.

Sometimes beauty is too much to bear.
The Music of Cream at The Coach House – March 11, 2020

By mid-March, music venues, stores, and pretty much every place of business normally open to the public would be shut down due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
