The Redpath Museum Society formally invites you to the Second Annual Redpath Museum Gala. This annual fundraiser encourages students, faculty, and museum enthusiasts alike to embrace the unique history and exhibits at the Redpath Museum, while listening to the smooth sounds of McGill's Jazz Ensemble and enjoying a delicious selection of hors-d'oeuvres. Highlights of the evening will include a silent auction, a museum-wide 'True or False' scavenger hunt, and the back-by-popular-demand Steampunk photo booth. Event proceeds will go toward sustaining the Redpath Museum's ongoing exhibit renewal efforts, and allow the museum to finish updating and renovating the Quebec and African Biodiversity exhibits.

The dress code for this event is Semi-Formal / black tie.

While the price of your ticket includes the cost of your food and drink for the evening, we encourage all participants to consider contributing an additional donation towards the museum by participating in the silent auction. All individuals who purchase a student ticket will be asked to present their student ID card at the door. Student IDs from all recognized universities are accepted.

The Redpath Museum 2018 Gala is generously sponsored by Redpath Sugar.

RSVP that you are coming!

ALL ticket reservation on-line only here.

General admission (non- student includes faculty, staff, alumni and general public) = $80.00 CAD

Admission for student = $35.00 CAD (please present ID at the door)

 

Land Acknowledgement

McGill University is on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. We acknowledge and thank the diverse Indigenous peoples whose presence marks this territory on which peoples of the world now gather.


Rematriation, Repatriation and Restitution Statement

We acknowledge that the return and restitution of cultural and natural heritage to communities of origin is an essential part of reconciliation and of recognizing the fundamental rights of Indigenous Peoples. As part of wider efforts to activate the standards presented in the Canadian Museums Association Report Moved to Action: Activating UNDRIP in Canadian Museums (2022), the Redpath is working towards pro-active restitution practices. As per our Collections Management Policy (2024), repatriation requests will be received by the Redpath Museum Director and will be treated on a case-by-case basis.

 

Accessibility

We warmly welcome all visitors and aim to provide helpful information so you can plan your visit to the Redpath Museum with confidence.

Please note that the Redpath Museum is in a historic building that does not currently meet universal accessibility standards. At this time, there are no ramps or elevators, and access to the museum, exhibition galleries (located on 3 floors), and washrooms requires the use of a central staircase.

The building’s washrooms are gendered and located in the basement. The nearest gender inclusive washrooms are located in the McLennan Library Building (M6-37C).

Due to the architecture and open spaces, the exhibition galleries may become noisy during periods of high attendance.

Please also note that the building is not air-conditioned. During hot weather, indoor temperatures can exceed outdoor temperatures.

We recognize that these conditions may limit access for some visitors and are committed to improving accessibility over time.

If you have specific accessibility related questions, we encourage you to contact us at redpath.museum [at] mcgill.ca.
