BUILDING DIALOGUE. Creating safe spaces for dialogue will be an important focus throughout 2017. NLE's third annual benefit will bring us together to support this commitment and our ongoing mission to make art accessible for all audiences.
Join us in celebrating four New Yorkers whose work has championed activism through promoting understanding and dialogue across diverse communities--making sure those voices are heard.
