Our deepest gratitude…

On February 22, the Friends of the Domes held our second annual in-person gala, and it was truly an unforgettable evening. We are deeply grateful to everyone who participated, whether online or in person. Your support means more now than ever as we work to secure the future of the Mitchell Park Domes.

We invite you to take a moment to watch this wonderful video that was unveiled at the event last night.
