We are excited to invite you to New West Music & Arts Society’s 13th Annual Charity Gala and Silent Auction – a reimagined event celebrating the joyful, meaningful music—and the Music with a Purpose mission—of New West Music & Arts Society.

This year’s Annual Charity Gala will feature a delicious sit-down dinner, a “shop-with-a-purpose” silent auction, and outstanding live performances by New West’s talented ensembles. Guests will also learn how their financial partnership helps New West harness the power of music to build community, share joy, and offer much-needed hope!

Held in the Legacy Room at Calgary’s Winsport Event Centre, proceeds from the evening will support New West’s ongoing work to strengthen and grow its foundational pillars of music, education, faith, and community.

For people who wish to support New West but are unable to attend our Charity Gala in person: our online Silent Auction is open to everyone, near and far! Our online auction will go LIVE on in mid-March; bidding will end during the Gala; winning bidders in attendance will be able to take their items home.

Become a Friend of New West to get all the latest news about our Charity Gala & Silent Auction, and to stay current on other New West news, events, and performances.
