A look back at the 2011 Annual Gala

Posted Jan 01

The event, held on Oct. 28 at nearby Lincoln Center, celebrated “the center of people, partnerships, and learning.”

With the new year in full swing, it’s time to look ahead to what we can accomplish in 2012. But first, we must look back at 2011, which was a  productive and creative year capped by a successful annual gala, held on October 28 at Lincoln Center’s Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse.

Honored in 2011 were three valuable partners to our organization: Fordham University, who provides us with tutors, mentors, and volunteers for our Youth Services, Senior Services, and Day Care programs; The Stella and Charles Guttman Foundation, which has provided general support to our organization for the past six years; and board member Christine Millen, who served diligently on our Board of Directors for over ten years. On hand to entertain were the Barry Harris Jazz Chorus, a longtime friend of the center’s, along with the Richard Clements Trio.

More than just a fundraiser, our annual Gala is an opportunity for our friends and supporters to see firsthand the work we accomplish everyday and the impact we have on our greater Lincoln Center community.

The Board of Directors, the staff, and the participants at Lincoln Square Neighborhood Center would like to thank everyone who made it out for the event, and sends best wishes for continued partnership and success in 2012.
