2026 A4 Benefit: Unbreakable Ties

Join A4 for an unforgettable evening at our biggest fundraising initiative of the year, celebrating artists, cultural leaders, supporters, and the community who fuel our mission and make our work possible!

Inspired by the red string theory found across many Asian cultures, this year’s theme honors the invisible connections that draw people, places, and futures together. At A4, we help make those connections real, linking artists across generations, disciplines, and communities to one another, to opportunity, and to what comes next. Together, we will honor the artists, cultural leaders, supporters, and community members whose paths are woven through A4’s 40+ year legacy of advocacy, visibility, and creative exchange.

The evening will feature:

• Cocktails, a seated dinner, and a gathering of artists, supporters, and friends
• Live performances by A4 artists and collaborators
• Inspiring remarks and the honoring of this year’s awardees
• A late-night encore at Opera House, carrying the celebration through midnight
