🎉 Meet Our newest 2026 Cocktails & Constitution Honorees!

We’re thrilled to welcome Deputy Speaker Dr. Nantasha Williams as one of this year’s honorees at King Manor Museum’s annual Cocktails & Constitution fundraiser! 🍸📜

Representing Council District 27, Dr. Williams has built her career around public service, civic participation, and expanding opportunity across Queens. As Chair of the City Council’s Committee on Civil and Human Rights, she has championed salary transparency and anti-racism legislation and served as prime sponsor of the Cultural Passport bill, encouraging New Yorkers to explore cultural, historic, and community sites across all five boroughs.

She’ll join our previously announced honorees Edjo Wheeler, Founder and Executive Director of Culture Lab LIC, and Jason D. Antos, Executive Director of the Queens Historical Society and Official Queens Borough Historian.

Three people doing incredible work for the cultural and civic life of Queens—and we can’t wait to celebrate them! 🥂
