Affectionately referred to as “fashion’s biggest night out,” the Met Gala 2024 is an annual benefit for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City that is held on the first Monday in May. The event welcomes stars, young creatives, and industry paragons with a scene-stealing red carpet. The 2024 Met Gala will celebrate the Costume Institute’s new exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”
ACI is pleased to partner with local fashion stylist, Risa Kostis, as our guest commentator during the red carpet and will be joined by Helen Jean, The Jacquie Dorrance Curator of Fashion Design, who will share her insights of the celebrity fashions as well as images from our Fashion-design collection.
Join us dressed to impress in your interpretation of this year’s sartorial theme, “Garden of Time”, for an afternoon of camaraderie, bevs + bites and fashion fun!
