Schlitz Audubon 2026 Gala

Friday, June 5, 2026 | 5:30 PM

Cocktails on Veranda | Live Artists | Dinner in the Great Hall | Auctions & Fund the Cause 

The natural world has amazed humans and provided the subject for our art since the dawn of time. Likewise, since our inception, Schlitz Audubon’s diverse habitats have been an artist’s muse. Painters, sculptors, and photographers have found endless inspiration at the Center through the seasons.

At the Gala, nature and art will come together in a joyful setting complete with live painting, signature cocktails, and exhilarating appearances from the Raptors of Schlitz Audubon. Bid on locally made crafts, arts, and experiences in our silent auction and thrilling live auction, and savor a creative, elevated dinner and hors d’oeuvres.
