We are greatly looking forward to our evening together at The Museum of Russian Art on June 23!

The Museum’s White Nights Gala is the highlight of our annual fundraising campaign, garnering essential support for the Museum and its mission of promoting cultural understanding through exhibitions and programming. The mission of TMORA is impactful, and we look forward to continuing this important work.

If our annual campaign reaches its goal of netting $100,000, the Robert J. Brokop Trust has pledged a $500,000 gift to initiate the Museum’s endowment fund. Endowment is a crucial part of any nonprofit’s finances, and this new fund will help ensure TMORA’s financial strength for the future.

Online Silent Auction

Prior to joining us, we invite you to peruse our online auction, which will culminate during the evening of the Gala. Offerings include works of art, incredible travel experiences, premium Vikings tickets, artisanal treasures, food & wine, and more. You will have the opportunity to view these items up close (and bid!) during the first hour of White Nights Gala.

Reading by Grade Level for Third Grade Students: The Key to Future Academic Success.

At this time, the Twin Cities, along with the rest of the nation, faces an education crisis, as far too few third-grade students are reading at grade level at the end of the academic year. This is a known marker for academic success, and students who achieve this learning goal have a much better chance of graduating from high school and going on to post-secondary education. Since the beginning of 2022, TMORA has reached almost 1,000 students in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul public schools, at the Washburn Library in Minneapolis, and at the Museum, with this arts and culture literacy project, based on relevant books at the correct reading level. Funds raised will allow for the continuation of this project, which also provides each participating child with their program’s book, as owning books is another important step to literacy for children.

You’ll have an opportunity to make a pledge during the Gala. You may also donate at the following link:
