In Support of the 25th Anniversary imagineNATIVE Film + Media Arts Festival

The Dawn of the Deadly Fundraising Gala, hosted by imagineNATIVE, promises an electrifying night of horror-themed entertainment, all while supporting Indigenous artists and storytellers. This one-of-a-kind event merges the thrill of the Halloween season with a cause close to the heart of the Indigenous community. Set against a backdrop of spooky fun, the gala brings together patrons, artists, and supporters for a celebration that fuels future projects and showcases the rich cultural contributions of Indigenous filmmakers.

With a blend of costumes, live performances, and thematic elements straight out of a horror film, the Dawn of the Deadly experience goes beyond the typical fundraising gala. Attendees are encouraged to embrace the spirit of the season with eerie and creative costumes, making the evening as visually stunning as it is impactful. A live auction and other fundraising activities will provide guests with the opportunity to support Indigenous creators directly while enjoying a night of unforgettable entertainment.

The event is an integral part of imagineNATIVE’s mission to elevate Indigenous voices in film, media, and art. As the world’s largest presenter of Indigenous screen content, imagineNATIVE has long been dedicated to fostering the talents of Indigenous filmmakers, digital creators, and visual artists. Funds raised at the gala will help support year-round programming, including mentorships, screenings, and artist development, ensuring that Indigenous stories continue to be told and heard globally.

Attending the Dawn of the Deadly Fundraising Gala not only means enjoying a thrilling night but also playing a part in the ongoing support of Indigenous artistic expression. By participating, guests will be contributing to a brighter future for Indigenous media and helping to shape the next generation of storytellers. It’s a night where art, culture, and community come together in a celebration that’s as meaningful as it is entertaining.
