RAISE + ARRANGE 2026

In an industry defined by moving pieces, shifting expectations, and constant evolution, our purpose remains the anchor. This year, we gather not to tame the chaos, but to lead through it—with creativity, connection, and courage.

“Steady in Purpose, Brave in the Chaos” invites us to recommit to what drives us, trust our instincts, and find strength not in certainty—but in our shared mission. Join us as we celebrate in the "all ships rise" mentality to support our non-profit partners in the twin cities, as well as build a community of fundraising event enthusiasts!
