On Monday, October 15, slip into something black or gold and tell your driver to take you to the Waldorf=Astoria to “Celebrate, Honor, and Support” Pratt Institute at its milestone 125th Anniversary Gala. This once-in-a-lifetime event will honor legendary and renowned individuals in the creative world: The Pratt Family, Maximilian Josef Riedel, Julie Taymor, and Kehinde Wiley, as well as raise vital funds for student scholarships.

Mack, Bruce M. Newman ’53 and Judith Newman, and David and Jane Walentas have put together a shimmering evening that will begin with cocktails at 6pm.
