“Honoring our Journey, Igniting our Future”

For 76 years, the West Indian Social Club of Hartford has stood as a beacon of culture, resilience, and community—a home away from home where legacies are built and heritage is celebrated. On April 18th, 2026, we invite you to be part of another significant milestone: our 76th Anniversary Gala, themed “Honoring our Journey, Igniting our Future.” This is more than just a dinner; it is a powerful convergence of our storied past and the limitless potential of what lies ahead. As we gather at 6:00 PM within the historic West Indian Social Club and the elegant People’s Ballroom, we will toast to the pioneers who paved the way and the visionaries who are currently charting our next chapter.

Step into an evening where Caribbean elegance meets purposeful celebration. Your presence at this gala is a testament to the strength of our diaspora and an investment in the continued vibrancy of Hartford’s cultural landscape. From soul-stirring rhythms and exquisite cuisine to the company of the region’s most influential leaders and community pillars, the night promises to be as inspiring as the journey we’ve shared. Don’t miss this opportunity to help us set the future ablaze with hope and excellence—secure your seat today and let’s ignite the next 76 years together.
