The Buffalo State College Foundation Scholarship Gala is Buffalo State’s biggest party of the year—and you’re invited! Join us on Saturday, April 28, in the newly renovated Statler on Delaware Avenue for an evening of dining, dancing, and performances.

Faculty and staff participants agree—the gala is a memorable night out.

“I like going to the gala to see colleagues and friends and meet new friends from the campus and the community in a formal setting, with beautiful decor and a nice meal, and see some of our honors students’ accomplishments,” said Andrea Guiati, SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor of modern and classical languages and director of the All College Honors Program.“Co-workers should take advantage of the opportunity to dress up, meet a sample of our honors students who will greet them as they enter the event. They are delightful to talk to. A few years ago, I had the opportunity and pleasure to dance with former Buffalo State President Muriel Howard. I would have never had that experience if I didn’t go to the gala.”

Festivities begin at 6:00 p.m. with wine and food pairings, followed by a multicourse gourmet dinner at 7:00 p.m., dancing, and a live auction. Auction items include unique jewelry, a trip to the Toronto International Film Festival, and a week’s stay in Hilton Head, South Carolina.

Tickets are $200 per person, and all proceeds support the All College Honors Program. For more information, please contact Kathryn Neeson, ext. 4895.

Celebrate Buffalo State, and make this the year you get to the gala!
