Tisch Gala 2018

To all of our students, parents, supporters, performers, Dean's Council members, Parents' Council members, and friends who supported the 2018 Tisch Gala - THANK YOU!

Thank you for your support of the 2018 Tisch Gala! With your generosity, we raised over $1 million in support of our most pressing student needs.

The evening honored Cinema Studies alumnus Eddy Moretti, along with Film & TV alumni Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus, the school's first father-daughter honorees. Dean's Council member Clive Davis also received a special tribute, 15 years after being honored at the first Tisch Gala.
