AABANY’s 36th Anniversary Annual Dinner will be held on Thursday, May 29, 2025, at Cipriani Wall Street. AABANY is excited to hold its Annual Dinner during Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month.

The theme for the 2025 Annual Dinner and the AABANY fiscal year is “Together we Thrive: The Power of Us!” This theme embodies AABANY’s dedication to fostering collective growth and unity, empowering AAPI lawyers to reach new heights while working together to address the legal needs of our community. We invite you to join us in building a stronger, more connected future where we thrive together through the power of collaboration.
