Message from Dwayne Morgan

The Walk of Fame

At 11am on Wednesday, May 15th, the City of Scarborough, will unveil a Star on their Walk of Fame, bearing my name, for my contribution to the city through the arts. From that day forward, my name will be a permanent fixture inside of the Scarborough Town Centre. This is a major honour. If you are available that morning, please come share the moment with me.

I do know that most will have to work at that time, so I've put together a reception, between 6 and 9pm at the Milestones Restaurant, just outside of the Scarborough Town Centre.

The reception is also free, and will serve as an opportunity where we can come together, share a drink, memories, reflections, and thank you's for your support of me over the past two decades.

There will always be another show, but this is once in a life time, so please consult your schedule, and see if you can be a part of what will be an amazing day!

As a recap of my career, and to support those who have supported me, I've created two slide shows in honour of the walk of fame. You can watch them at www.youtube.com/dthepoet

Thank You!

Dwayne Morgan
