Un-Gala 2024, the 5th annual Un-Gala was an unforgettable evening of lyrics and laughter! Guests joined us at Universal Music Canada to help raise funds for the Canadian Music Therapy Fund’s “Music Therapy Moves Us Campaign,” dedicated to supporting older adults facing challenges from cognitive illnesses.
The night was hosted by the hilarious Big Norm, with beats by Celebrity Dru, a soulful performance by J3M, and classic tunes from Canadian legend, Andy Kim. With an open bar, delicious food, and a silent auction packed with must-have items, the night was a huge success.

After years of financial challenges and evaluation, our Board has begun a strategic transition to strengthen sustainability and expand our reach. As part of this shift, we have made the difficult decision to close the Music Therapy Centre on Bloor Street at the end of this year. We know how meaningful this space has been for clients, staff, and our community.
This change allows us to focus resources on programs that meet people where they are and support more communities across Canada. Most people never see where our work truly happens: youth shelters, community programs, long-term care homes, hospitals, and other settings where accessible music therapy can change lives. This has always been the heart of the Canadian Music Therapy Fund, and it is where your support matters most.
We are working closely with all on-site clients to ensure continuity of care and to help identify alternative programs. If you or your family need help navigating next steps, we are here. CMTF remains fully active, committed, and focused. This is an evolution that allows us to deliver our mission more sustainably and invest more deeply in off-site programs that reach those who need us most.
If you are able, a donation today helps ensure uninterrupted support through this transition and keeps accessible music therapy available where it matters most. Thank you for standing with us and believing in this work.
