TEAO Celebration of Hearts & Spirits Gala

On Saturday, June 20, 2026, join us for an unforgettable evening featuring singers, dancers, and dynamic performances that celebrate diverse cultures and backgrounds. Enjoy delicious food, meaningful connection, and an atmosphere filled with warmth and inspiration as we come together for a night that boldly reimagines how mental health support can be experienced and delivered.

TEAO Canada’s Celebration of Heart and Spirit Gala is an evening grounded in elegance, and even more deeply in presence, relational care, and our shared commitment to collective responsibility. This is more than a gala. It is a gathering rooted in community, compassion, and the belief that mental health support can be done differently.
