The Riverwalk Trust will honor M. Austin Forman for his outstanding contributions to the Riverwalk and greater Downtown community on Thursday, March 5, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Timpano Chophouse & Martini Bar. Honored guests, sponsors and special ticket holders will gather for a VIP cocktail reception, beginning at 5 p.m. Exquisite food, sensational spirits and festive entertainment will delight approximately 350 guests as they mingle at Riverwalk Trust’s signature annual social event. Attendees will enjoy cocktails courtesy of Premier Beverage, delight in tasty hors d’oeuvres from Timpano Chophouse & Martini Bar and enjoy music from a live band.
Forman was greatly involved in the inception of Fort Lauderdale’s Riverwalk and the Arts & Entertainment District. He served on the General Obligation Bond committee that developed a bond issue to make Fort Lauderdale the best city of its size by 1994. Out of that committee came the development of the Riverwalk and the Arts, Entertainment and Science District including the Broward Center for the Performing Arts and the Museum of Discovery and Science. Forman is currently a real estate developer and still serves on the museum board. He is also board chairman of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts.
The Riverwalk Tribute will assist the Riverwalk Trust in its efforts to promote, enhance and beautify the Riverwalk community. The cost for the event is $150 for individuals ($200 with VIP reception) and $125 for members ($175 with VIP) of the Riverwalk Trust at the Riverwalk 100 level or higher.
