The event will take place at the St. Regis Hotel in Atlanta, coinciding with what would have been Whitney Houston’s 61st birthday.

The event will be hosted by Kevin Frazier and Whitney’s sister-in-law, Pat Houston, who is also the president of the Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation.
The fundraiser will include a silent and online auction, with scholarships to be presented to students studying the arts at historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs).
