2026 Fall Fundraiser: Once Upon a Time… in the Renaissance

The Guild of the Ormond Memorial Art Museum & Gardens invites our community to embark upon a most enchanting journey, a five week celebration of art, theater, and imagination inspired by the timeless works of William Shakespeare. The festivities shall begin with The Beggar’s Banquet where jesters, muses, and revelers gather in lively “Rock and Roll” Renaissance fashion, complete with music, merriment, and costumed characters. The season will conclude with a grand Masquerade Ball, where masked guests will dance and celebrate before enjoying the theatrical play. Funds raised support the mission of the museum to inspire our community through art and nature while honoring those who fought for freedom.

2025 Fall Fundraiser: Once Upon A Time: The 1940s

The OMAM Guild organized a fundraiser with a 1940s theme to showcase the fashion, art and music of the era. The five-week exhibit opened with a party (Rick's Café Américain on the Rooftop) on Saturday, Oct. 11, and culminated with a live fashion show (Edith Head Fashion Experience) on Saturday, Nov. 15.
