Seaside Soirée (Gala) 2025

Sunday, April 27, 2025, 3-6pm, Bali Hai Restaurant

Our third and final fundraiser for the year is an adults only party! This year, the gala will be held at the iconic Bali Hai right on the water. Barnard parents, guardians and friends are invited to join Principal Chao, Coach MJ, Ms. Estrella, and other Barnard friends for fun, dancing, and bidding! There will be plenty of free parking directly in front of the restaurant, a 360-degree photobooth, a typewriter poet, delicious food, drinks, exclusive silent and live auctions! We will also be drawing the winner of our $1,000 raffle grand prize!* We have arranged for discounted childcare during the event for only $25! For more information or if you have any questions, please contact the Gala Team.
