Art and Design World Elite Gathered at Grand Central Oyster Bar for the 2025 Storefront Gala

Storefront for Art and Architecture welcomed 250 guests to Grand Central Oyster Bar for the 2025 Storefront Gala, which honored scholar Keller Easterling, architect Toshiko Mori, and artist Paul Pfeiffer. The ebullient evening transformed from a cocktail hour with oysters into an extravagant dinner, during which the honorees were celebrated by Paola Antonelli, Sean Kelly, and Julie Mehretu. During the celebration, the nonprofit organization—founded in 1982 with a mission to expand our understanding of the built environment through artistic practice—also welcomed Justin Beal as the next Storefront Board President.
