Guggenheim Gala: The Opposite of Hate

The best book launch … ever? Shonda Rhimes approves!

Challenge

The CNN commentator wanted to attract attention to her research on polarization in her new book, and she needed a media-saavy launch to do it.

Insight

Sometimes big ideas need a big, splashy gala to make a mark.

Solution

Grey Horse created and produced a 500-person gala at the Guggenheim in New York City, co-hosted by Shonda Rhimes and Katy Perry, with over $500,000 dollars worth of sponsorship from brands. The event received high level coverage in prominent publications.
