Starry Evening Gala

From all of us at the Crested Butte Land Trust – Thank You!

As we celebrated 35 years of conservation at this year’s 8th Annual Starry Evening Gala, we were reminded that protecting the places we love is only possible because of an incredible community of supporters like you.

To our sponsors, donors, volunteers, attendees, auction donors, and community partners, espcieally our presenting sponsors Margery Feldberg and Jeremy Levin, thank you for making this year’s gala such a remarkable success. Your generosity helps protect the lands and waters that define the Gunnison Valley, from mountain headwaters and vibrant wetlands to working ranches, wildlife habitat, trails, and open spaces.

Every sponsorship, donation, auction bid, and volunteer hour makes a lasting impact. More than a fundraiser, Starry Evening is a celebration of a community united by a shared commitment to conservation and the future of the places we all love.

As we look ahead, we are inspired by what we can accomplish together. With your continued partnership, we will advance critical conservation projects, strengthen stewardship, and ensure these extraordinary landscapes remain protected for generations to come.

Thank you for believing in our mission and for standing with the Crested Butte Land Trust.

Together, we’re protecting the places you love.

Underwriters make this event an even greater success! It’s thanks to these folks that we could direct all proceeds from the gala to conserving and caring for our beloved trails, wildlife habitats, ranch lands, and waterways. 

Thank you to these businesses and individuals for making this year’s event a huge success.

The Crested Butte Land Trust Gala wouldn’t be the celebration it is without our incredible gala committee! These tireless volunteers work all year to bring you the best event of the summer. (Interested in joining us next year? Email Cheryl at cheryl@cblandtrust.org.)
