Save the Date: Wild Night at the Museum

Save the date for our annual gala, Wild Night at the Museum, one of the most meaningful (and fun) nights we host all year.

What makes this event special isn’t just the setting or the program, it’s the people in the room. Each year, we bring together a group of individuals who care deeply about wildlife, conservation, and this community. It’s a rare chance to step away from the day-to-day and be surrounded by others who are invested in making something better, together.

This year, we’ll be gathering at the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley for Wild Night at the Museum, which is a perfect backdrop for the evening. We’re designing the experience to feel immersive, engaging, and connected to the work you’re supporting, not just a dinner with a program, but a night that reflects the impact behind Blue Ridge Wildlife Center.

TICKETS & SPONSORSHIPS

If you joined us last year, you know the kind of energy the night holds. And if you haven’t attended before, I hope you’ll consider it this year.

Tickets, sponsorships, and patron opportunities are now open:

• Become a Corporate Sponsor
• Join as a Patron
• Purchase Tickets

Partnering with Blue Ridge Wildlife Center through sponsorship supports wildlife medicine, advances conservation education, and strengthens public health and safety right here in our region. It is also a chance to connect with more than 350 community leaders for an evening that is both meaningful and genuinely fun.

Last year, this event raised more than $400,000 to support the care of over 4,000 wildlife patients and the programs that prevent future harm. This year, we are aiming even higher.

If you’re planning to attend, now is the time to secure your spot. This event reaches capacity quickly, and we aren’t able to expand beyond that.

More details to come soon. In the meantime, I hope you’ll secure your spot.

Thank you for being part of this work.

With gratitude,

Annie Bradfield
Executive Director
