AHC Awards Dinner 2011


On Saturday April 9, 2010 the American Hellenic Council of California (AHC), hosted its 36 th Annual Honors Dinner Dance at the Omni Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles. For the second consecutive year, with more than 400 people in attendance the event was sold out.
“This year we had a top-notch cadre of honorees and based on the attendees' feedback, the event was deemed one of the most successful and well-planned l in the history of the Council. On behalf of our Board of Directors, I would like to thank all the organizations, businesses and individuals that supported us again this year and have been standing by our efforts and causes in the past. We would have never been able to grow stronger without everyone's support and commitment.” stated Alexander Mizan, Executive Director of the organization.
This year, with award-winning actor John Aniston as the event's MC, the Council recognized the accomplishments of four exceptional honorees – Chancellor. Linda Katehi, Mr. Van Vlahakis, Professor Georgios Anagnostopoulos, and Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL).

With several VIPs of the Greek-American community in attendance, the event acted as a great chance for the community to gather like it does every year. The award ceremony was exceptional and the honorees engaged everyone in attendance with their unique speeches. After the meal, the night was filled with Greek music from Margarita and the Takis Kokotas Band. On occasion, singers Alexia and Ariana Savalas who were also in attendance, took the stage and sang along and the bars were serving Metaxa in what turned out to be a night of dancing and truly Greek “kefi”.
