Heritage Ball
Every October, architects and industry professionals come together for this annual black tie event to support the AIA New York Chapter and the Center for Architecture Foundation. Today, the Heritage Ball serves as the single largest funding source for the AIA New York Chapter, Center for Architecture, and Center for Architecture Foundation and allows them to carry out their many initiatives. Heritage Ball began in the 1980s and has grown from a meager hundred or so guests to over 1200 attendees today. The Heritage Ball is an exciting event held to honor the rich architectural heritage of New York City and to celebrate the architects, officials, organizations, and professionals from related industries that continue the tradition of design excellence in New York City today.
Party@theCenter is the official Heritage Ball after-party that packs the Center for Architecture until late into the night. All Heritage Ball attendees are given complimentary admission. Advance and at-door ticketing is available for those attending the after-party only.
