THE FUTURE IS NOW

The Icons of Pop Culture Gala returns on October 22 to honor the museum’s work and the visionaries shaping film, fashion, gaming, and music.

From cocktails to curtain call, this is an evening where inspiration meets impact. Enjoy a welcome reception and dinner, raise your paddle high at the live auction, then experience a special performance from Salt-N-Pepa—just steps from the stage.

Join us at the gala, grab performance-only tickets, or participate in our online auction to support MOPOP's mission. Your contributions help power exhibitions, education programs, artifact preservation, and community partnerships that inspire the next generation of creators.

2026 Icons of Pop Culture Gala Event Chair: Syreeta Gates.
