Green Building Alliance’s annual fundraiser, the Emerald Evening Gala, is always an unforgettable night filled with celebration, music, exceptional food and drinks, and exploration of some of our region’s greenest and most iconic spaces.

Our staff curates an evening for guests that combines lively networking with immersive experiences that leave attendees full of hope and excitement.

This Year’s 30th Anniversary Emerald Evening Gala

At this year’s event, we are honoring YOU and your contributions to create a healthier and more resilient region. During this very special evening, we will celebrate the dedication of the individual and acknowledge the power of our community – the collection of people, partnerships and projects that together are working to address climate change, advance human health, achieve social equity, and create thriving economies.  

Presented by our Emerald Sponsors, EPIC Metals and Phipps Conservatory & Botanical Gardens, this year’s Emerald Evening gala will be hosted on Thursday, September 21 at the beautiful Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, which is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its record-breaking Center for Sustainable Landscapes, the first building in the world to achieve LEED Platinum, Living Building Challenge, WELL Platinum, and several other green building certifications! In addition to all the traditional offerings we have planned for this evening, guests will also have the chance to help us envision our region’s next 30 years.
