The benefit honored Agnes Gund, José Parlá and Vanessa Williams.
“YoungArts is older than I am!” says Sarah Arison, in a moment of reflection.
The gala’s co-chair and longtime supporter was preparing to welcome in a crowd to the Temple of Dendur once again, for the first New York gala YoungArts has thrown since 2019 . The organization has turned 40, and with that threw its 40th anniversary celebration this week, which raised nearly $1 million in support of artists. The evening was emceed by Josh Groban, and sponsored by Givenchy; honorary co-chairs were Agnes Gund, José Parlá and Vanessa Williams, while the gala was co-chaired by Arison, Gillian Hearst and Sandra Tamer.
“To be in the museum kind of after hours is such a special unique New York experience,” Arison said. “We’re really looking to celebrate every artist from the past four decades who has been a YoungArts award winner. And welcoming all of the promising future winners who are going to join this amazing community.”
