The BC Entertainment Hall of Fame in Vancouver was founded on 24 July 1992 to honour British Columbians that have made outstanding contributions to the entertainment industry.[1][2] Star Walk inductees are honoured with a brass plaque on Granville Street's Walk of Fame and in a Starwalk gallery in the Orpheum.[2][3] Individuals and organizations can be nominated and inducted. Vancouver Civic Theatres collaborates with the BC Entertainment Hall of Fame, providing guided tours of the historic Orpheum Theatre.[4]
The selection process can take several years from the time the nomination to when its given.[5] Dorothy Davies was one of the first Star Walk inductees.[6]
