An Evening to Connect, Celebrate & Be Inspired

The Annual Cultural Spotlight is one of Nonprofit Staten Island’s signature gatherings bringing together nonprofit leaders, cultural institutions, funders, and community partners for an evening of connection, discovery, and celebration.

Each year, we proudly highlight one of Staten Island’s cultural gems. In 2026, we are thrilled to shine a spotlight on the National Lighthouse Museum, a valued Nonprofit Staten Island member and an iconic institution that reflects the borough’s rich maritime history and enduring spirit.

Set against the backdrop of the waterfront in St. George, this special evening offers a unique opportunity to experience the Museum while engaging with fellow nonprofit and community leaders in a relaxed, welcoming environment.
