The Walkway of Dreams was the brainchild of members of the Board of Directors of the CCLAA. The name was suggested by one of the first honorees – Ray Evans. This walk down the path of dreams was created to honor people from the Western New York region. It is a way in which the CCLAA and the people in the area may recognize and honor the recipient’s contributions to the arts – contributions that surpass the test of time.
