PAVILION XL: Avant Garde Celebrating the Contributions of Women in Tampa Bay Purchase Pavilion Tickets or Sponsorship In its 40th year, Tampa Museum of Art’s beloved annual gala celebrates the contributions of women who have had a meaningful impact in the Tampa Bay Region, as we continue to fulfill our mission to educate, engage, and inspire our residents and visitors. This distinguished affair raises funds and awareness of Tampa Museum of Art’s commitment to make art more accessible to all, ensuring our reach extends to every corner of our community, particularly those in need.
The proceeds will further fuel the Museum’s dedicated outreach initiatives, designed to ignite the spark of creativity in everyone, including 12,000 K-12 students who tour the museum each year as well as thousands who are able to participate in art camps, classes, and experiences because of this funding. Join us for this grand tradition and celebration of the Tampa Museum of Art’s innovative art education endeavors that serve our diverse community.
This year’s Pavilion theme is dedicated to the art of impact—and the extraordinary women behind it. Join us for an inspiring celebration honoring the remarkable women whose vision, courage, creativity, and leadership have left an indelible mark in our beloved Tampa Bay Community, and beyond.
Like every great work of art, their stories are layered with passion, perseverance, and purpose. Together, we celebrate their contributions, the lives they have touched, and the beautiful legacy they continue to create. 2026 Committee Chairs: Elle Chancey | Mary Crino | Danyell Jones Munassi Honorary Chairs: Pat Carter | Sandy Juster 2026 Honorees: Taneka Bowles | Maureen Cohn | Elisabeth Condon | Stephanie Conners | Cornie Corbett | Sandra González Gompf, MD FACP FIDSA | Ya La’Ford | Lee B.
