On Saturday, April 5, 2025, the Mayor’s Ball for the Arts returns at a new location, the Barbara and Art Culver Center of the Arts!
The Mayor's Ball will return to a themed event this year, and we are kicking it off in 2025 with Alice in Wonderland. Event attendees can celebrate the event and attend in costume, dressed like your favorite Alice in Wonderland character.
The Mayor's Ball for the Arts will showcase and honor the hardworking, dedicated, and talented artists who have impacted our community over the last year. Artists nominated and voted for by the community will receive their award at the event where the winners will be announced.
The Mayor's Ball is an annual fundraising event for the Riverside Arts Council and will also include an opportunity drawing with incredible artworks created by local artists, a silent auction, food, drinks, and entertainment - an event you will not want to miss!
