The Latin American Experience Gala and Auction brings together collectors, galleries and patrons from throughout Latin America to celebrate the accomplishments of the Latin American Art Department at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. This biennial event includes dinner, music and dancing and features a live and silent auction of Latin American works of art.

Proceeds from this gala benefit the Latin American Art Department at the MFAH. This year, the gala coincides with the opening of the exhibition Antonio Berni: Juanito and Ramona, the first major international exhibition to offer a comprehensive view of the Argentinean master's groundbreaking achievements.
