London Calling!
Our ASP reunion season is off to a fantastic start! At our premiere event, alumni of all ages came together on a rainy evening in London-Wimbledon on November 1. Thanks to André, Nicci, and their family for sharing their culinary skills, hospitality, and generosity with the ASP community. Click here to see photos and read more about the event.
Our alumni give back to the ASP communities in numerous ways throughout the year. With alumni hosting reunions around the world, naming on-campus spaces after beloved faculty, and offering their expertise to students, there are so many ways to stay involved in the ASP community.
Click here read more about how alumni like Cécille Carameros Shannon '64 and Tim Plump '15 give back to ASP. If you'd like to plan a campus visit, make a gift, or host a reunion contact the ASP Alumni Office.

Annual Fund
Our ASP community has supported incredible projects and enabled students to extend their learning, both inside the classroom and beyond. Thanks to the support of our community, our school has state-of-the-art buildings and recruits top educators from around the world.
This year, we are establishing an Annual Fund devoted to ensuring the school continues to innovate at every level of ASP life. You can learn more about the fund here.
Help us launch the Annual Fund by giving a gift today.
