Please join us for a magical evening at the 23rd Annual Desert Gala at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum on Sunday, April 24th, 2016.
Soft lights illuminate the pathways while live music floats through the warm air. With hundreds of cacti in riotous bloom, this is the perfect time of year to experience this special evening at the Museum.
Enjoy hors d’oeuvres and cocktails as you view one-of-a-kind Silent Auction items including unique Desert Museum experiences, lovely botanicals and other treasures displayed throughout the Desert Garden.
An exciting Live Auction features spectacular adventures and rare arts and treasures followed by a Seated Dinner with gourmet cuisine and wine, served among the lovely gardens and patios. We look forward to welcoming you to this very special event.
