Dear Museum Supporter:

We are pleased to announce that the 20th Annual Air & Space Gala will be held on Thursday, November 7, 2024.

The Gala serves to provide much-needed support for the expansion of the museum’s historical preservation efforts and many education programs. These programs include our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) programs at the middle and high school levels and our STEM partnerships with elementary schools throughout the area.  The Gala serves as an opportunity to honor the historical events and the accomplishments of leaders in the aerospace community. 

Celebrating the Future of Air and Space

This year we are celebrating the Future of Air and Space and are fortunate to have a uniquely qualified list of guests to help us mark the occasion. Our honored guests will include, Baldwin native and NASA Astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli, Senior Vice President of Lunar Permanence at Blue Origin, John Couluris, and Chair & Chief Executive Officer for Vantage Group, George Casey.

Through your support, you can play a major role in helping the Cradle to continue to be a major educational center for STEM here on Long Island and help us to inspire the next generation of engineers, scientists, pilots, and astronauts.

Please join our efforts by becoming a dinner sponsor, placing an ad in our tribute journal, or by donating an auction item.
