Enchanted Forest Tree Provides Centerpiece for the 2024 Met Gala

The 2024 MET Gala took place on May 6th in New York City at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The theme was the “Garden of Time” and celebrated the Costume Institute’s new exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.” This is the second time Albina has partnered with Kadan Productions, Inc. to create the centerpiece for the Met Gala’s Great Hall. In 2022, Albina bent the 1” pipe framework for the ribbons of a towering spiral staircase leading to the Statue of Liberty’s Eternal Flame of Enlightenment.
