JOIN US AT OUR 20TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION IN NEW YORK CITY FOR AN EVENING OF CONNECTION AND JOY

BUY YOUR TICKET HERE!

Chicken & Egg Films is turning 20—and we’re marking this milestone not with a stuffy dinner, but with an expansive, welcoming night designed for our whole nest. This gala is about more than looking back. It’s about who we are when we show up for each other—filmmakers, funders, artists, advocates—and how we move forward, all together.

Join us at Chelsea Industrial on the night before the Tribeca Film Festival for:

  • A Khmer culinary journey from Chef Chakriya Un of Kreung Cambodia

  • Live performances by L’Rain, Ty Sunderland, West Dakota, and other surprise guests

  • An open-seating, cocktail-style evening—no long speeches, just stories, music, movement, and meaning from filmmakers including Contessa Gayles and Geeta Gandbhir

  • And at 8pm, an after party celebration to carry us into our next chapter

Your ticket supports our ongoing work to champion women and gender-expansive documentary filmmakers. And your energy? That’s what makes this more than a party. It’s a gathering of purpose with our community!

We’d be honored to have you with us. Individual gala tickets are available here. Or, if you prefer just to party, grab your $100 afterparty tickets now and join us at 8pm for DJs, dancing, and a late-night pizza drop! 

It is important to us that this event, although a fundraiser, remains as inclusive as possible so if cost proves a barrier please reach out to mia@chickeneggfilms.org. 

And if you can’t join us in person, please consider making a contribution in honor of 20 years of storytelling that makes a difference.
