NOAH Night is back – with a twist!
This year, we’re excited to bring our community together for a special virtual event on June 13, 2025 in honor of International Albinism Awareness Day!
This fun-filled evening will be a time to reflect on the moments that matter- the stories, connections, and achievements that have shaped our community over the past year. We’ll also highlight the ongoing fundraising efforts that make NOAH’s mission possible, celebrating the generosity and dedication of our incredible supporters.
Special Announcement! NOAH Night attendees will be the FIRST to hear top secret information – during the event we will be announcing the hotel selection for our upcoming Adult Weekend 2025 and NOAHCon 2026. Don’t miss out on this breaking news for the NOAH community!
We are thrilled to announce that we will be returning to the Gatherly platform for NOAH Night this year! We love using Zoom for our NOAH Connections calls, but for a celebration like NOAH Night that aims to bring together people from many different groups in our community to connect, a platform with a little more flexibility is needed. Gatherly has completely unique features that allow participants to “walk” around the event space and interact with different groups of people, almost like you would in person!!

NOAH Night FAQs:
How do I join NOAH Night?
Check your email for an exclusive join link for the celebration! The entirety of the event will be held on Gatherly.
Can I join the event from my phone?
Yes! You don’t need a computer to join in the fun this IAAD. We are pleased to share that one of Gatherly’s many updates since our last event with them has expanded their platform to work on computers & mobile devices alike. Our team tested out the functionality and was very impressed with this update.
I haven’t been to an event on Gatherly before. What is it like?
If you’re new to Gatherly, we recommend checking out this video tutorial to see what it’s like! There are also written instructions available for joining on a mobile device or from a computer.
Will this be like a webinar, or will I be able to talk to people?
We can’t wait to spotlight many awesome community members and share IAAD greetings form near and far during our presentation, but worry not – this event will definitely not be like a webinar! There will be plenty of time to socialize with fellow attendees and navigate the multiple “floors” of our event during the evening. We’ll have games, information booths, areas to socialize, and more!
Who should attend NOAH Night?
This is the perfect event for anyone involved in the NOAH community! If you are a PWA or know and love someone with albinism, we bet you’ll enjoy this chance to celebrate IAAD and our extraordinary community together. All are welcome and encouraged to join us in supporting NOAH and joining our community together on this important day.
What will the presentation include?
Submissions are now closed, but we encourage you to take a peek at some of the content we requested (and received!) from our community members. In addition to community submissions, we also have special recognition planned for our awesome fundraisers that have hosted an event in the past year. Last but not least, NOAH Night attendees will be the FIRST to know the hotels we’ve selected for Adult Weekend 2025 and NOAHCon 2026.

Life with Albinism!
One of the most common questions we get from new parents is “will my child be able to….?” To help celebrate those in our community and highlight the many capabilities of people with albinism, we are seeking photo and video submissions depicting a wide variety of activities. The possibilities are endless! We invite you to share a photo or brief video clip that shows you taking public transportation or driving, attending school or work, participating in a sport, creating art, or something else.
