McMichael Canadian Art Collection

Following a record-breaking success in 2022, the McMichael Canadian Art Collection is pleased to announce the return of the Gallery’s signature annual fundraiser, the Moonlight Gala on Saturday, May 31, 2025. Canadian art’s biggest night under the stars returns to dazzle hundreds of distinguished guests with a memorable evening of dining and dancing under the Canadian sky.

The McMichael’s grounds will transform into a glamorous outdoor soiree, where guests will mingle with artists, art lovers, donors, community leaders, and corporate supporters, all while enjoying captivating performances by leading Canadian musicians. The 2025 Moonlight Gala will reflect McMichael’s continued commitment to environmental sustainability and stewardship.

Guests will enjoy exclusive access to McMichael’s 2025 summer exhibitions: The Uses of Enchantment: Art & Environmentalism and Sandra Meigs: Sublime Rage, which jointly examines and considers the fragile human relationship with the natural world.

Proceeds from the Moonlight Gala go toward the conservation and exhibition of more than 7,000 works of art in the McMichael’s permanent collection, the development of industry-leading educational programs for children and youth, and the stewardship of the McMichael’s natural landscape and outdoor art.
