Be a gala sponsor
A healthy art scene is a sign of a healthy community. The Gala is our largest fundraiser, and the proceeds generated help support our programming, exhibitions, education, and events year round. It also helps the careers of each artist involved by giving them significant exposure for their work. Become a Gala sponsor, and help us grow the arts in our community!
