Description

Get ready to step back in time and celebrate VMA's Annual Virginia Manufacturing Gala! Join us on November 8th at the iconic Virginia Museum of History & Culture in Richmond, where history and innovation collide in a dazzling Art Deco-inspired Night at the Museum. This black-tie affair promises a night of elegance, excitement, and celebration.

The evening will kick off with a glamorous cocktail reception, followed by a plated dinner and program. As we honor the past and celebrate the future, the highlight of the night will be the announcement of the winners of the Virginia Manufacturing Cup, including the much-anticipated reveal of "The Coolest Thing Made in Virginia."

Since our founding members first convened in 1922, the VMA has proudly stood as the only statewide association in Virginia exclusively dedicated to manufacturers and their allies. This year's Gala is not just a celebration of our legacy but a nod to the future as we continue to lead Virginia's manufacturing industry into tomorrow.

The evening will culminate with an electrifying performance by Good Shot Judy, the Mid-Atlantic’s No. 1 High Octane Swing Band, ensuring the night ends on a high note. Don your finest black-tie attire and join us for a night to remember at the Virginia Manufacturing Gala—our premier event of the year!
