Step into an unforgettable evening of legacy, inspiration, and transformation at the Two Rivers Gala – Tougaloo Honors. This year’s celebration pays tribute to two towering intellectuals whose influence shaped generations—Dr. Richard P. McGinnis, trailblazing Dean of the School of Natural Sciences, and Dr. Jerry W. Ward, Jr., visionary poet, literary scholar, and cultural critic.
Their lives and work represent more than academic brilliance—they symbolize the revolution of thought, the renaissance of purpose, and the enduring impact of mentorship, advocacy, and truth. Guided by this year’s powerful theme, The Untold Story: From Revolution to Renaissance, we will come together to celebrate change agents, honor visionary leaders, and invest in the future of Tougaloo students.
Your presence and support at the Gala are more than symbolic—they are transformational. Proceeds from this event directly fund scholarships, opening doors for tomorrow’s scholars, scientists, artists, and advocates. Together, we are cultivating a future shaped by opportunity, equity, and excellence.
This is more than a gala. It is a movement. Join us on this journey—where stories untold find their voice, legacies are honored, and the next chapter begins with you.
But your tickets here.
