Garden Party - Western Center's Annual Gala
About this Event
Tickets are on sale now for Garden Party — join us for an unforgettable evening at The Ebell of Los Angeles. This is more than a gala. It's a celebration of community, shared purpose, and the unstoppable energy that fuels our fight for justice.
For nearly 60 years, Western Center has been the light guiding California forward, even when the path seemed impossible to find. Our strength is forged in solidarity and sharpened by each victory that brings us closer to a California where everyone thrives. This October, we're coming together to celebrate that light, and carry it further.
