Dear Friends of Yale GALA: 

We hope this note finds you and all your loved ones safe and well, in these times unprecedented in more than 100 years. 

Due to Covid-19 this event is (obviously) cancelled. We will reschedule when it is safe to do so. (Only 1 person wrote to ask if we were having the event :).

As you may know, Yale GALA, Inc. was one of the first organizations to cancel events to preserve safety. We cancelled events on March 10, in advance of the NYC and NYS rules.  We look forward to a time when we can meet again in person. 

In the meantime, please join us on Facebook.
