The Museum Ball
The 66th Annual Museum Ball
Every extraordinary city boasts an extraordinary art museum, and Birmingham is no exception. With more than 27,000 works of art from across the globe, our world-class institution is the cornerstone of the Magic City’s rich cultural landscape, enhancing the quality of life for all its citizens.
The Museum Ball is the Birmingham Museum of Art’s largest fundraiser and serves as an important opportunity to not only showcase our magnificent collection, but also to highlight the outstanding programs and exhibitions the Museum brings to the City of Birmingham each year. Funding from the Ball provides critical resources for the Museum’s educational efforts and community outreach, enabling all ages to discover the world through art.
The Ball Co-Chairs, Maye and Bernard Frei and Dora and Sanjay Singh, have planned Bollywood Nights, a festive black-tie evening inspired by the rich cultural heritage of South Asia. The evening will commence with a cocktail party followed by a seated dinner prepared by Chef Tyler Lyne, and guests will dance the night away to the enduring crowd-favorite 8 South.
We hope you will join us on May 6 for an unforgettable evening of dinner and dancing. In addition to providing funds for arts education, your contribution will have a significant impact as we all continue to benefit from the Museum’s important role in the cultural life of our community.
