Visualize GAMA Glam

A celebration benefiting the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art

Saturday, February 7, 2026 from 6 to 8 p.m.

Visualize is Gregory Allicar Museum of Art’s principal annual fundraiser. Visualize celebrates rich connections in art, while highlighting works from the museum’s collection. With exclusive access to the new Andy Warhol exhibition and delicious food and drink, Visualize is a “can’t miss” event! We encourage you to Glam up 1970s style!

Mark your calendars and promote extended support by encouraging those in your circles to attend.

This event provides crucial funds for the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art’s engagement, which we rely on to support our exhibitions and programs and is essential for us to continue broadening our outreach and to bring ever-better programming to our community. We hope you’ll join our effort by attending this year’s Visualize gala and supporting the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art!

Please note: Early bird ticket price is $100. Ticket price will increase to $125 on January 21, 2026. CLA faculty and staff discount $75.

AT THE EVENT

Attendees will have the chance to participate in a wine pull, bid on art inspired floral arrangements,  bid in a live auction led by Elmo Frickman and take photos in a photo booth. A curated wine list will be served along with a variety of ales. 1970’s themed DJ music will help you get your boogie going if you choose! There will be curator tours of our Andy Warhol exhibition.
