The Collage Annual Gala supports the IMAS mission to inspire audiences of all ages to explore art and science through its permanent collections, exhibits, programs, and partnerships by empowering learners to discover their interests and pursue their passions.

The Annual Collage Gala is the premier fundraising event for the International Museum of Art & Science (IMAS), bringing together community leaders, supporters, and cultural advocates for an unforgettable evening in celebration of creativity and curiosity.

Now in its 47th year, Collage plays a vital role in supporting the museum’s mission to advance art and science education in the Rio Grande Valley. Proceeds from the gala directly fund hands-on programs, dynamic exhibitions, and engaging learning experiences for children, families, and learners of all ages.

Guests enjoy an elegant night of fine dining, live entertainment, auctions, and immersive art and science experiences—all in support of IMAS’s efforts to inspire, educate, and connect our community through the power of art and science. Complimentary valet parking, generously provided by RGV Valet Parking, will be available at the entrance to the McAllen Convention Center facing Oval Park.

Your contribution helps us provide enriching exhibitions and programs for our children and the community where over 25% of our population lives in poverty. As the region’s only museum of art and science and an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, the IMAS is committed to enhancing the overall quality of life for all members of our community through artistic and scientific enlightenment. Your Collage tickets directly support the IMAS mission.
