Support our largest fundraising event of the year!
The Urban Green Gala is our most important fundraiser, supporting our critical education, policy, and research initiatives. The Gala brings together leaders from all corners of New York City’s vibrant sustainability community for the sustainable building celebration of the year.
This year’s event will be held on October 7 at The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers in Manhattan. We hope you’ll join us for cocktails, dinner and dessert, and a celebration of our 2025 Honoree, John Fish. Visit our Gala event page to purchase your ticket and sponsorship.
