BAM Gala Event | 2018

MMEink was proud to host the 2018 BAM Gala at our Brooklyn Cruise Terminal event venue back in May. BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) is a multi-arts center located in Brooklyn, New York, so it only seemed right to hold the Gala here. The large scale of the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal was easily able to accommodate the 550 guests that were in attendance, where artists and partners were honored, special performances were held and guests could spend the evening celebrating with family and friends. Special guests included Jennifer Lawrence, Jeremy Irons, Darren Aronofsky and many more.
