Museum’s Grand Ball
Outstanding return of the Ball!
Thank you for your participation in the McCord Stewart Museum Grand Ball 2023, an elegant and prestigious fundraising event that transported us into a unique all-black-and-white universe. Evoking the contrasts of bygone eras and the time to come, Dick Walsh, artistic director of the Museum’s Grand Ball 2023 and creator of magic, offered guests a truly exceptional event.
As part of the Museum’s Sustainable Development Policy, specific actions were implemented this year to organize an eco-responsible fundraising event. Among other initiatives, we collaborated with local suppliers committed to reducing their environmental impact.
Thanks to your contribution, close to half a million dollars were raised through the Annual Ball and the Sugar Ball. This amount will enable the McCord Stewart Museum to pursue its mission of preservation and transmission of our cultural heritage through educational, cultural, and community exhibitions and activities. Visitors will discover our rich collections and learn about the social history of Montreal, past and present. Thank you for your generous support!
