2008 GALA COMMITTEE CHAIR
Dear Honorees, Colleagues, and Guests,
Warmest welcome to our Roaring 20’s Gala honoring two distinguished individuals
who have made such a positive difference in the Long Island community,
April Gornik and Christopher Mitchell. Congratulations and our thanks to them
for enriching our lives.
For decades, The Heckscher Museum of Art has focused on inspiring the people
of Long Island with acclaimed exhibitions and educational offerings. I am proud
to be part of an organization that is dedicated to providing a deep understanding
of the visual arts.
Tonight, we celebrate this legacy by returning to the era where it all began. I want
to thank members of the Gala Committee who tirelessly volunteered their time
and enthusiasm to insure the success of this evening. I would especially like to
thank Margy Hargraves, Erik Neil, Matt Campo, and the Development Department
for their commitment.
On behalf of the Committee, along with the Board of Trustees and Staff at The
Heckscher, thank you for joining us tonight and for caring as much as you do.
With best wishes,
Judith Streiter
Trustee
2008 Gala Committee Chair
