ART BASH

Thursday September 24, 2026

Get ready to head backstage with us at the AGO for Canada’s ultimate art party!

Join us for a night of incredible music, bold contemporary art, and memories of concerts past. Inspired by our exhibition featuring Canadian musician Melissa Auf der Maur’s iconic photographs of life on the road, this year’s Art Bash invites you behind the scenes for an unforgettable party. Long live rock & roll.

Art Bash is the AGO’s signature fundraising event—and the city’s premier celebration of art and culture. This can’t-miss annual gathering brings our community together to support the AGO’s bold vision: to lead global conversations from Toronto through extraordinary collections, exhibitions, and programs, while reflecting the people who live here. Guests will experience custom works of art, fashion, food, décor, and drinks, alongside an exciting lineup of live entertainment—all in support of the AGO.
