Flushing Town Hall’s 2025 Gala
Flushing Town Hall’s annual Gala, HEROES, took place on Thursday, October 16, and was a smashing success! The evening featured a vibrant cocktail hour in our gallery, followed by dinner and entertainment in our historic theater where we honored two of Queens’ real-life superheroes, Jeff Rosenstock of Queens College and Michelle Stoddart of Resorts World New York City.

“When we invest in the arts, we invest in the health of our communities—in empathy, in connection, and in hope. And when we stand beside organizations like Flushing Town Hall, we ensure that artists—our greatest visionaries, change-makers, and truth-tellers—can continue to lead us forward.” —Megan White, Deputy Director at New York State Council on the Arts, during the HEROES Gala
All funds raised at HEROES deepen our impact of providing global arts for our global community. Thank you to everyone involved, from our ticketed guests and honorees to our artists and vendors.
