Gabriel Pizzi, Chair
BAM Endowment Trust
Join us for The BAM Ball on Wednesday, April 29th honoring the late artistic visionary Robert Wilson, whose close creative bond with BAM endured for 55 years, and Gabriel Pizzi, Chair of BAM’s Endowment Trust, whose steadfast leadership and support have played a critical role in advancing BAM’s mission, vision, and values.
Guests will enjoy cocktails, dinner in striking black-and-white, and the US premiere of Wilson’s Moby Dick, followed by an electric After Party.
Proceeds from The BAM Ball support our mission as a home of curious people and adventurous ideas. BAM’s programs advance artistic experimentation and champion inclusion and accessibility throughout the arts as presenter, activator, and connector.
