The Holter Museum of Art will hold its annual fundraising gala Friday, May 15, at the Helena Civic Center, this year themed Le Cirque — a circus-inspired evening featuring theatrical ambiance and French-inspired food. Tickets are $120 per person.

Proceeds from the gala support the Holter's exhibitions, education programs, and community outreach. The museum has used its annual gala as its primary large-scale fundraiser, and the event typically draws Helena's arts-engaged community for a formal night out. Guests are encouraged to dress formally for the occasion.

The Holter Museum of Art is located on Lawrence Street near Last Chance Gulch and is one of the anchor institutions for visual arts in the capital. Ticket and reservation information was available through the HelenaMT.com event listing.
