Maryhill Museum of Art's 2026 fundraiser gala, "100 Years of a Dream," brings together people who support the museum's mission to ignite a journey of educational enrichment in the Columbia Gorge with exhibitions and programs that preserve and interpret our artistic and historic collections.
This black-tie affair begins with wine from the award-winning Columbia Gorge AVA and hors d’oeuvres. From there, you’ll enjoy a sumptuous dinner inspired by the beauty and bounty of the Columbia River Gorge featuring seasonal ingredients, and an evening of art, history, and fundraising to celebrate the museum’s centennial.
What began as Sam Hill’s dream became a legacy that has inspired generations. A century ago, Queen Marie of Romania lent her royal grace to Maryhill’s dedication, establishing a tradition of beauty, education, and wonder along the Columbia River Gorge. As we mark 100 years of art and enlightenment, we honor the enduring legacy of those dreamers.
Join us for a high-energy evening of socializing, dining, hearing stories of impact, and raising your paddle to illuminate Maryhill’s future.
