Become One with Eternity

Yayoi Kusama’s groundbreaking vision takes center stage at this year’s Gala, inviting guests into an infinite world of art and imagination. This immersive evening begins with bespoke cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, curated to delight the senses and spark inspiration. Guests will then enjoy a seated, three-course dinner masterfully prepared by the acclaimed culinary team at Delaware North and Patina 250. Each course is crafted to reflect and complement the evening’s artistic ambiance, offering a dining experience as expressive as the art itself. Captivating live performances infused with Kusama’s playful spirit will set the tone for an unforgettable evening.

More than a celebration, the Gala is a meaningful opportunity to champion the mission of the Buffalo AKG Art Museum—to inspire, educate, and enrich lives through the transformative power of art. Your presence and generosity help make possible the presentation of world-class exhibitions, educational initiatives for artists of all ages, and community engagement programs that extend far beyond our gallery walls.
