Step into the light at the iconic Rainbow Room on September 9, 2026, as we gather for LISC NY's Big Apple Awards Gala. Perched high above Midtown Manhattan on the 65th floor of 30 Rockefeller Plaza, this legendary venue offers a breathtaking backdrop with its classic elegance and panoramic views of the city skyline. Under our theme, Brilliant Futures: Illuminating What's Possible Through Community Investment, the evening celebrates the visionaries lighting new paths for New York. These change makers don't just hope for progress—they invest in bold, community-driven solutions that empower our neighborhoods and drive lasting impact.

Join us for a premier opportunity to connect with fellow leaders, innovators, and advocates who share a deep commitment to shaping a stronger, more equitable New York. We look forward to welcoming you to an evening of meaningful conversation as we honor those who are building a brighter future for our communities. 

As we illuminate the night, we encourage you to wear your finest metallics, silver, gold, and beyond to match the radiant spirit of the evening.
