Museum Hack Presents Hacked Gala: A Rebellious Night of Art, Fashion, and Change at the Met
The Californer/10311119

NEW YORK - Californer -- Museum Hack announces Hacked Gala, a bold fundraising tour at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Inspired by the 2025 Met Gala theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, this museum tour is a dress-to-the-nines, renegade experience at The Met, where guests will sip wine and celebrate those who challenged norms, defied expectations, and redefined self-expression—one outfit, painting, or law at a time.

Guests at the Hacked Gala will:

• Walk the same halls celebs do on Met Gala night
• Hear wildly entertaining stories of art, fashion, identity, and change.
• Pose with a pro photographer (VIP tours only)
• Enjoy a glass of wine in the museum (VIP tours only)
• Make an impact: 100% of ticket purchases (outside of museum admission) will go to The Fashion and Race Database®, an NYC nonprofit working to eliminate racism in the fashion industry

Museum Hack is offering two tour options:

• VIP Evening Tour – $150/ticket (Glam dress, a 2-hour experience, 1 glass of wine per person, pro photos)
• Casual Afternoon Tour – Pay-what-you-wish ticket donation to The Fashion and Race Database with minimum $25 for museum admission (Casual dress, 90-minutes)

Hacked Gala is a limited-run, small-group tour on select Saturdays in May. Corporate or family groups may inquire with Museum Hack for a private experience.
