The Sphinx Gate Gala: A Golden Threshold
Thursday, June 26, 2025
6:30 - 10:30pm
Monroe SF · Art Deco Elegance
Afterparty 10pm - 1:30am
Tickets - Step through the Golden Threshold
When the sun flashes gold and the veil thins, the Gate opens.
You are summoned to step across the Golden Threshold into a culture reborn – one that honors healing as a shared rite of passage for everyone and celebrates the courage to know ourselves.
To step into our full potential and meet the challenges of our world, we are building a movement for individual and collective healing using the power of art and play. Our launch project, the Sphinx Gate, makes self-discovery a hero's journey, letting community hold the mirror and helping you remember the wisdom within.
This is no ordinary gala.
Join the Order of the Sphinx for a revelrous night of myth, mystery, and meaning, where riddles become rituals and personal transformation becomes art. Through curated connection, ritual dinner, immersive experiences, and elixirs to awaken the senses, we gather not just to celebrate – but to catalyze.
The Gate opens only when we face it together.
