On Sunday, May 18th 2014, ASIFA-East held its 45th Annual ASIFA-East Animated Film Festival Awards Ceremony. It was a big year for us as we ushered in the crowd to The New School’s absolutely stunning new Tishman Auditorium, introduced our first comedienne host Liz Miele, and debuted the Peggy Award statuette! Congratulations again to all our winners! Here’s a look back on the evening in photos. These will also be added to our Facebook group where you can all tag yourselves!
