About

Make the Road New York’s annual Dignity, Community, and Power Awards Gala celebrates our organization and honors leaders who fight to achieve dignity and justice for immigrant and working-class communities.

Join us to celebrate our communities and honorees, and look ahead to the future we can, and must, collectively create.

As our most important fundraiser of the year, the Gala raises critical general operating support and gives us the opportunity to bring our members, staff, closest allies, and supporters together. 

Thank you for your support.

Gala Artist and Design Concept

Abigail Miller is a graphic designer who works with movement organizations and nonprofits working for racial, economic and social justice. At the heart of her work is a commitment to sharing the power of art and design and demystifying technical expertise. Abigail was thrilled to work on the design concept for the 2024 Gala, inspired by the beauty and energy of the soon-to-be-revealed mosaic mural at Make the Road’s new Queens Community Center, and local wildflowers and medicinal plants. Abigail lives in Brooklyn with her partner and cat.
