We are thrilled to announce IREM Greater NY Chapter as the honoree of the GiGi’s Playhouse NYC 14th Annual Gala, Shoot for the Stars! ✨

For eight years, IREM has been a devoted partner in our mission to create a more accepting and inclusive world for individuals with Down syndrome and their families. Since launching its annual Clay Shoot in 2019, IREM and its incredible community of members and friends have generously contributed nearly $135,000 to GiGi’s NYC.

Year after year, IREM has turned partnership into meaningful impact, and we are honored to celebrate them this October. 💫

Join us on October 15 at the iconic Edison Ballroom as we Shoot for the Stars and celebrate the incredible individuals, families, volunteers, and partners who make our community shine.

What is Art ?
During our summer programs our participants visited The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), The Apollo Theater, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), where they experienced art in many different forms and reflected on the question: “What is art?” Through engaging conversations, creative exploration, and shared experiences, participants discovered that art can inspire, connect, and help us express who we are.
