2020 Annual Gala

HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY, PEORIA ACADEMY – 20TH ANNUAL GALA

When: Saturday, March 7, 2020 – 6:00-9:00 pm

Where: Peoria Riverfront Museum, 222 SW Washington St, Peoria, IL 61602 (free parking in the museum parking garage off Water St)

Each year, parent volunteers work to create an event to remember. This special evening will include delectable hors d’oeuvres, an elegant sit-down dinner with wine pairings, silent and live auctions and an exclusive opportunity to tour the world’s most comprehensive exhibition on Leonardo da Vinci.

A portion of the funds raised will support future PA field trips to the Riverfront Museum so students can have a hands-on learning experience each year.

YOUR CONTRIBUTION WILL MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE

We are a 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization. As an independent school, we do not receive funding from any religious institution or taxing body. We rely on tuition and fundraising to achieve academic excellence. In addition, our commitment to financial aid makes a quality education possible for many families who otherwise could not afford it. The Gala is our largest community-building and fundraising event and is vital to our financial sustainability.
