25th Annual Liberty Gala
Thursday, October 10, 2024

Liberty Gala

The National Liberty Museum’s 25th Anniversary Liberty Gala is an opportunity to celebrate our partners, mission, and the impact we’ve made together since the organization’s launch in 2000. The Gala is our largest fundraising event of the year, and your support of this event means that more people will be inspired and educated on the value of Liberty and our responsibility to uphold the ideals of freedom and justice. This year’s event will feature a cocktail reception, an elegant seated dinner and a dessert reception featuring the region’s top culinary talent.
