Annual GALA

Our annual Gala is one of, if not the event that defines the Palm Springs Air Museum. A black tie event, it’s held to honor special members in the world of aviation, as well as raise funds desperately needed to fund the museum’s many projects. The Gala represents a fun night of food, drinks, and dancing!
