We are so excited to have the event at the Kiva Auditorium in downtown Albuquerque this year.  With over 2,300 seats available in the auditorium, we encourage you to invite all your loved ones to this special show!

The Gala will have two performances and a Silent Auction. Tickets may be purchased for a performance featuring our Kindergarten through 3rd grade students (Session 'A') or for a second performance of the evening featuring our 4th - 8th grade students (Session 'B'). Both Sessions include entrance into our Silent Auction between the performances. The evening's schedule will be as follows:


5:00 - 6:30 pm: Session 'A' (Kindergarten - 3rd grade performance)

7:30 - 9:30 pm: Session 'B' (4th - 8th grade performance)

*4:00 - 7:15 pm: Silent Auction (Both Session 'A' & Session 'B' attendees are welcome and encouraged to bid!)

Ticket sales have begun!  Please click on the 'Buy Gala Tickets' tab to purchase your tickets online for the Gala or visit our office at TMEMS Montano campus to purchase tickets with cash or check. 

Our students are excited to share their talents with you! This evening celebrates the Fine Arts program at TMEMS while raising money to keep our Educational Assistants in the classrooms. It is sure to be a night full of music, art and fun! We hope you will join us and show your support of our incredible public school students. The annual spring fundraiser is critical in helping us keep E.A.'s in the classrooms. Your contributions through the Gala ticket sales, auction purchases, sponsorships and donations make a big difference in the every day school experience for our students.
