The Collection Gala

BENEFITING THE DALLAS MUSEUM OF ART

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2025

A NEW WAY FORWARD

As we celebrate over 60 years of the DMA Art Ball and 25 years of TWO x TWO for AIDS and Art, the Dallas Museum of Art is looking ahead with a bold new vision. The Collection Gala will honor all past chairs of the DMA Art Ball, the DMA Board of Trustees, and the philanthropic work of TWO x TWO for AIDS and Art for unwavering dedication to the arts.

As North Texas's only encyclopedic art museum, the DMA is a vital cultural hub offering transformative experiences that connect people of all ages through art. The DMA relies on funds raised through The Collection Gala to fulfill its mission. All proceeds directly support the DMA’s commitment to presenting extraordinary exhibitions, providing innovative educational and public programs, and caring for a collection of over 26,000 objects—all while offering impactful access to incredible works of art.
