Purchase your ticket(s) to ‘An Equestrian Affair’ by February 22

Aged, refined and sophisticated style: guests of the 2024 Mayor’s Cultural Gala will be transported to an elegant, equestrian lounge the evening of Thursday, Feb. 29 at the Manor, located at 16750 Weston Road in King. In a node to King’s rural landscape and equine community, the theme for the third Mayor’s Cultural Gala in support of arts, culture and heritage in King Township, is ‘An Equestrian Affair’.

Single tickets ($250) and tickets for a table of 10 ($2,250) are available for sale now through February 22 at king.ca/mayorsgala.

Set against a backdrop of equine chic décor, guests will enjoy a night of exclusive entertainment, dinner and dancing with a live DJ. The line-up includes: a photobooth; dueling electric cellists; an acoustic guitar performance; live art painting; and, a silent auction. The event will begin at 5:30 p.m. with a reception service that includes an antipasto bar and crudité garden, featuring a variety of seasonal vegetables. A plated dinner service with duo entree starts at 7 p.m. Guests receive two complimentary, standard drink tickets. Two bottles of wine (one white, one red) are included at each table and a top shelf cash bar is available. Funds raised from this event will go towards supporting the important work of Arts Society King and the King Heritage & Cultural Centre. This includes arts, culture, heritage-based programming, exhibitions and special events, as well as the preservation and restoration of important heritage buildings.

The Mayor’s Cultural Gala is a biennial fundraising event, hosted by King Township in partnership with Arts Society King. The last gala event, held on September 2022, was a tremendous success and raised $76,000 in support of arts, culture and heritage in King Township.
