Join Us

The MRC Gala is a one-of-a-kind star-studded event in our nation’s capital. Featuring prominent politicians, pundits, and television and radio hosts, the Gala draws a Who’s Who of the conservative movement. This year the MRC is transforming the interior of the National Building Museum into a festive Italian landscape, featuring a taste of Italy. Join us for a night of laughing at the liberal media over fine Italian cuisine in one of the most spectacular venues in Washington, DC. As always, the dinner will include the DisHonors Awards and the William F. Buckley, Jr. Award for Media Excellence, which will be presented to a true conservative icon. Don’t miss what will surely be a night to remember!
