devastating 1985 earthquake and natural disasters in
Guerrero, Yucatán, El Salvador and New Orleans.

mid-sized institution with a stellar international
reputation.

Description: Black tie.
El Museo’s Gala is one of the most glamorous evenings on the
New York social calendar, with guests each year flying in
from South America, the Caribbean, and Europe. This elegant
evening includes a specially-selected program of Latin
music, providing dancing during and after dinner, with
guests lingering late into the night. It’s a grand occasion
that raises significant funding for the museum’s education
and community outreach programs. It has also come to
symbolize the pride Latin Americans and Latinos in New York
take in their museum.
