2026 Magic of Hope Gala & Auction

Omni Providence Hotel
Join us for a fun-filled night of cocktails, dinner, merriment, and more at the 2nd Annual Rhode Island Magic of Hope Gala & Auction! It’s a festive gathering in support of the local Parkinson’s community, with many ways to support the American Parkinson Disease Association, Rhode Island Chapter. Every dollar raised goes to provide the support, education, and research that will help everyone impacted by Parkinson’s disease live life to the fullest!

Parkinson’s is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, and an estimated one million people in the U.S. are living with Parkinson’s disease, including thousands of families in Rhode Island impacted by the disease. Our goal is to raise more than $100,000 from this year’s gala, increase awareness about PD, and support the local community, all while having a fabulous night together in the heart of downtown Providence!
