Marc Bromfeld, Director of Corporate Affairs and Social Responsibility at Edrington, stated "SOPAC provides essential arts for the entire community and surrounding areas. I have seen these benefits first-hand and know that the Edrington ethos of giving to charitable causes who improve our communities aligns well with SOPAC's mission."

The SOPAC 2017 Gala celebrates the outstanding community contributions of three local residents including Deputy Speaker of the New Jersey State Assembly, Mila M. Jasey of the 47th Legislative District, South Orange community leader and businessman Matt Glass, and philanthropist Patti Donovan.

The evening includes cocktails, passed hors d'oeuvres, dinner stations, and dessert. Honoree tributes, silent and live auctions, and entertainment by Grammy Award-winning talent Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks will make the evening festive for all in attendance.
