McMichael Gallery has a very successful fundraiser

SATURDAY NIGHT IN KLEINBURG - WHERE YOU CAN STILL SEE THE STARS SHINE
Holly Cole performs at the McMichael - Tom Sandler
The McMichael Canadian Art Collection held a very successful fundraiser Saturday night in Kleinburg, Ontario. Okay so there wasn't a full moon on June 8th, but the stars came out to the Moonlight Gala to help support the only public gallery that has 100% Canadian content.
This unforgettable evening featured internationally acclaimed East Coast jazz chanteuse Holly Cole performed outdoors in front of the log cabin gallery.  Host of the evening was CTV's Marci Ien (Canada AM).  Guests were treated to culinary delights especially designed for the evening by Chef Jamie Kennedy. There was also -- cough, cough, a cigar bar,  and thanks to Via Allegro Ristorantea scotch bar and a martini bar!

Proceeds of this event support educational programming and exhibitions at the McMichael, creating a lasting impact on Canadian art and culture now and in the future. The gallery is located in the village of Kleinburg, Ontario, just a few kilometers north of Toronto.
