Legacy Celebration Gala

Our most elegant affair, the Legacy Celebration Gala is a night to honor the trailblazers who have shaped the Women's Dermatologic Society and to support the mission that drives us forward. Net proceeds go to the WDS Legacy Long Term Reserve Fund to benefit board-directed strategic initiatives and key WDS programs, including mentorship, leadership training, and global outreach.
