In 2024, MIAD proudly celebrates 50 years of art and design education. An important part of the celebration will be the annual Creative Fusion Gala. The theme of this year's gala promises to transport you back to the eclectic era of 1974, the very year MIAD first opened its doors.

Creative Fusion Co-chairs Deanna & Eric Tillisch and Christine & Tom Irgens invite you to become a sponsor immersing yourself in the past and investing your money in the future of our students. 

Together, we can ensure the legacy of MIAD continues to shine for another 50 years. Thank you in advance for investing in our students.

We are starting earlier this year - registration opens at 6:00 p.m.

Tickets are now sold out.
