This event will transform the entire gallery for one magical evening.

Attendees will be welcomed with a glass of sparkling wine, before enjoying delicious food and drink pairings, and viewing the stunning works of art assembled solely for the evening.

 

TICKETS INCLUDE

  • glass of sparkling wine upon arrival courtesy of Blue Mountain Vineyard and Cellars 
  • food & beverage pairings from five of the region’s finest chefs
  • live auction at 8:30 pm
  • entertainment and performances
  • emcee Chris Walker, host of Daybreak South on CBC Radio
