The Inaugural High Tide Gala
A Stage for Every Story
On February 21, 2026, our community gathered in The Barrel Room at Mother’s Brewing Company to celebrate the power of theatre, honor our volunteers, and invest in High Tide’s future.
The evening featured live performances, heartfelt tributes, and the presentation of our inaugural volunteer awards. Guests received an exclusive preview of High Tide’s strategic vision and the bold programming ahead.
More than a fundraiser, the Gala was a declaration: High Tide is here to stay. We are building a sustainable, inclusive theatre home where artists and audiences alike can experience stories that matter.
