About the Gala

The information below is from Gala 2021.

Please join us on February 26 for a night of virtual fun, friends, and fundraising to benefit The Steward School's Parents Association! Top auction items include vacation packages, fine dining experiences, and much more.

Of course it wouldn't be a special occasion without special events. At the virtual Gala this year we have a few treats up our sleeves including DIY cooking decorating, a livestream dance party, a silent auction and virtual program, and an interactive wine tasting experience with Thatch Winery!
