GALA

The Washington Square Park Foundation for the Arts, LLC held 2 Galas ahead of our 2nd Music Festival season last year. As you may remember, we honored Ray Charles and Al Jarreau the previous year. This past year we to honored Tina Marie, Bob Marley, Nina Simone, James Brown and Alan Toussaint. These Galas are a way for us to kick off our season and raise funds toward producing these fun concerts in the park. Thank you to all who helped support us through these galas.
