(Los Angeles, November 2, 2025) – The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) hosted its 14th annual Art+Film Gala on November 1, 2025, welcoming nearly 600 notable guests from the worlds of art, film, fashion, and entertainment to honor artist Mary Corse and filmmaker Ryan Coogler, and featuring a special performance by Doja Cat.
Co-chaired by LACMA trustee Eva Chow and Leonardo DiCaprio, this year’s gala raised nearly $6.5 million million—a new record for the event—to support LACMA’s efforts to make film more central to its curatorial programming, as well as the museum’s broader mission. Gucci, which has partnered with LACMA since the Art+Film Gala’s inception in 2011, returned as presenting sponsor of the 2025 event.
Gucci continues its invaluable partnership with the museum as the presenting sponsor of the annual event.
Proceeds from the annual Art+Film Gala go toward underwriting LACMA’s initiative to make film more central to the museum’s curatorial programming, while also funding LACMA’s broader mission. This includes exhibitions, acquisitions, and educational programming that explore the intersection of art and film.
