The Art Gallery of Ontario held its highly anticipated annual fundraising event on Thursday April 21st, 2016 – AGO Midnight Massive.
This sold-out event featured artistic performances, contemporary and interactive art installations, DJ’s, drinks, and hors d’oeuvres throughout the multiple levels of the AGO.
- Masquerade revelers enjoying the party among the art
The lively vibe with the art community and socialites mingling was a perfect night to dress up and don on masks for a midnight masquerade where the overall theme was transition. At midnight, there were special performances which coincided with a full moon.
- Event hosts at Mac Cosmetics (sponsor)
Every level had a mood corresponding to Fire, Earth and Air. Down at the lower level (fire), we had a super energetic samba band (Escola de Samba de Toronto) that evoked the fire from within with their contagious music.
- Samba dancers from Escola de Samba de Toronto
This sold-out annual event raised $313,000 towards AGO’s exhibitions and educational programming.
