A big thank-you to the alumni who joined us for a special evening in downtown Los Angeles on February 1, 2026! The event featured a cocktail reception at Vespaio Restaurant and a performance by the Los Angeles Master Chorale at Walt Disney Concert Hall, arranged by Scott Altman ’90, President and CEO of the Los Angeles Master Chorale.
A special thank-you to our West Coast Purchase College Alumni Association Board hosts:
Scott Altman ’90 (Music)

Check out a few of the photos from the LA Alumni Event … and stay tuned for the next one! And if you were at the event and have your own photos to share, send them to us at alumni@purchase.edu.
