Fundraising Events

The Taking Flight Gala is an event that draws the attention of corporate and philanthropic leaders across the Tri-State area. Guests are invited to cocktails in Hangar 1 and an aerial demo of WWII aircraft before enjoying a delicious three-course dinner in Hangar 2. The Taking Flight Gala generates funding each year to benefit the museum’s programs and supports the restoration and ongoing maintenance of WWII aircraft.
