Mint Museum Coveted Couture Gala, A Little Night Magic

Dear Valued Mint Museum Supporter,  

On behalf of The Mint Museum, Wells Fargo Private Bank, and our Gala Co-Chairs Ann and Michael Tarwater, we would like to cordially invite you to our annual Coveted Couture Gala, A Little Night Magic. 

In lieu of our grand in-person celebration, guests may experience many elements of our annual gala and support The Mint Museum, with family and friends from the comfort and safety of their own homes. A Little Night Magic will be a special virtual evening offering a prix fixe menu for small gatherings and a Virtual Watch Party consisting of music, art, philanthropy, and more! 

Guests may participate in our cocktail and dinner experience by purchasing a hand-delivered Party Package offered in three different levels: Sapphire, Gold, and Silver. Party Packages will include access to the Virtual Watch Party along with cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, entrees, desserts, and a few surprises! Party Packages may be selected in multiples of two or ten guests for Individual or Host Committee recognition, respectively, and are available for purchase until Monday, April 12, 2021. A fourth option for those who wish to simply view the Virtual Watch Party is also available and purchasable until the day before the gala.  

After cocktails and dinner, guests will access the Virtual Watch Party at 8pm via television or laptop. The virtual program will include an inspiring messages, a special feature performance, a live auction, and paddle raise with many wonderful benefits for each level of giving. All registrants will receive an emailed link, instructions, and access to technical support a week prior to the event. 

The Coveted Couture Gala is the Mint's single-largest annual fundraiser. All contributions raised during this event benefit The Mint Museum annual fund, which supports innovative programming, groundbreaking exhibitions, arts education for children, and free access for the community. Your participation in our virtual gala enables the Mint to deliver its mission par excellence.  

Thank you for your ongoing, generous commitment to our beloved Museum! Please stay tuned for additional details on our upcoming auction and paddle raise items. We look forward to celebrating with you virtually on Saturday, April 24! 

Warmest wishes,
