On April 18, six current and former actors from DAYS OF OUR LIVES held a fan event to benefit Retinoblastoma International in Hartford, CT. The event raised proceeds for the foundation, which raises awareness and promotes early diagnosis of children's eye cancer. Fans enjoyed mingling with the stars during the day with Q&As and an autograph session, as well as a cocktail reception in the evening. Digest's Bryan Beckley sits down for one-on-one chats with Eric Martsolf (Brady), Darin Brooks (Max), Arianne Zucker (Nicole), Bryan Dattilo (Lucas) and Matt Ashford (ex-Jack). There are also some clips of highlights from the event. Enjoy!

Thank-you for the videos of this great charity event! It is wonderful that 6 stars of Days of Our Lives attended. There were 6 though so please correct this article to include the name of James Scott (EJ DiMera) who attended and is featured in the Event Highlights video. Thanks.

Wow, what a great recap of the event. I was actually there in attendance, and it was a wonderful event. I was just curious as to why James Scott doesn't appear here. He was the 6th attendee but going by your blurb at the top here and no video interview, it appears as though he wasn't there. Why is that? It appeared as though James was actually perhaps the most popular at the event, so I cannot figure out why he also would not be featured in a short video interview with Mr. Beckley, and at the very least, mentioned along with the other starts who attended to support this wonderful cause. Very strange.
