March 10-11, 2023 – American Alpine Club’s 2023 Annual Gathering and Benefit Gala

The American Alpine Club’s 2023 Annual Gathering and Benefit Gala is coming to New York City March 10-11. This year’s theme is “Transforming the Conditions for the Send: An Evening with Former Vice President Al Gore & the Full Circle Everest Team.” Please join the American Alpine Club as we celebrate the climbing community’s boldness: on the rock and in advocacy. We’re experiencing a changing climate—and we don’t just mean the planet. Our 2023 keynote speakers—the Full Circle Everest Team and former Vice President Al Gore—have both made massive contributions to transforming the outdoor community, and have shined a light on the subtle conditions we’re dealing with. From making history as the first all-Black team to summit Everest, to educating millions on climate change, these speakers are changemakers.

On top of the Gala, join us for the whole weekend starting with our Friday night Send N’ Social at The Cliffs Gowanus filled with games, competitions, hanging with community organizations and pros, and more. Then join us for our Saturday Sessions at the Conrad Downtown filled with inspiring and thought-provoking presentations and conversations.
