The annual gala is Burien Arts Association’s largest fundraiser. It helps fund the group’s arts and cultural programs throughout the year, including art classes for youth, art exhibits at Highline Heritage Museum, Shakespeare in the Park, and our Burien Arts Highline Foundation Scholarship to a graduating senior pursuing the arts.

Thanks to Pedro Espinoza of the Northwest Carpenters Union and the Pacific Northwest Council of Carpenters for fabrication of the artist panels and 4Culture for its sustaining support of Burien Arts’ programs.
