In a world that continues to challenge our sense of community, we invite you to join us for an evening celebrating nine years of creating spaces for transformative dialogue.

At this year's gala, we'll honor the courage it takes to engage in difficult conversations with the hope of creating meaningful change.

ROOM GALA 2025: ENCOUNTERING BRAVERY
July 17 | 8 PM EDT | Zoom

Our evening celebration will feature the presentation of the Coline Covington Award, which aims to highlight individuals whose work embodies the transformative power of analytic action.

This year, we are honored to present the award to Lord John Alderdice, whose analytic contributions to addressing some of the world’s most challenging conflicts exemplify the transformative potential of psychoanalytic thinking in action. Lord Alderdice has been a supporter of ROOM since our first issue in 2017.

We hope you will join us for an hour of reflection and connection.
