The fund was established in 2005 to enable children to pursue their dreams of being on stage and afford them the opportunity to attend one of BTG PLAYS! camp sessions.

Berkshire Theatre Group's 11th Annual Richie duPont Award Event features an evening of music by The Berkshire Jazz Collective, dancing, refreshments provided by Firefly, raffles, and a silent auction.

Anchored by Andy Wrba, Bill Chapman, and Benny Kohn, the Berkshire Jazz Collective is the choice jazz band of the Berkshires. The BJC has featured special guests including Charles Neville (saxophone), Benito Gonzales (piano), Marisa Massery (vocals), Armen Donelian (piano) and more of the regions finest musicians.

This event is sponsored by Firefly, David Winn and Your Color Connection.
