SAVE THE DATE:May 8, 2008.
Since 1992, the Palm Springs Walk of Stars has been honoring prominent personalities in show business and the entertainment industry as well as the literary field by placing Golden Palm Stars embedded on the sidewalks located at Palm Canyon Drive, Tahquitz Canyon Way and Museum Drive. The Stars are a historical landmark of the Greater Palm Springs Area.
Meritorious Stars are also awarded to humanitarians and pioneer/civic persons within our desert community, military persons who have received the Congressional Medal Award, sports figures and to The Palm Springs International Film Festival Annual Special Honoree. The Board of Directors also considers certain criteria in choosing honorees.
The event is a great way to promote and benefit our Greater Palm Springs area.
