2012 Roxy Award Honoree: Dr. John Pastin

Join us in honoring Dr. John Pastin with the 2012 Roxy Award. Dr. Pastin's ongoing commitment to keep music, art and dance alive in his native McKees Rocks through continual support, leadership and guidance of the Father Ryan Arts Center, a place where young minds can create, dream and strive to make their dreams come true, is truly an inspiration to many and deserving of this recognition.
