The 24th Annual Adelphi University Gala at the Garden City Hotel in Garden City, New York, on September 21, 2024.
An evening supporting our students and celebrating the members of our Million Dollar Roundtable—both the inaugural members and our newest honorees. All those who joined in person saw the unveiling of our plan for a brilliant future: The Momentum Campaign: Extraordinary Impact.
From the stunning music performances to the moving videos and inspiring speeches, every moment was filled with excitement and hope for Adelphi’s future. You can catch a glimpse of the evening’s highlights by viewing our photo gallery.
The event featured a special performance by Tony-nominated Broadway star Jarrod Spector (Hamilton, Jersey Boys, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical).
