About the Gala

A pioneering underwater explorer, Jill Heinerth, is the featured speaker at The Northumberland Land Trust (NLT) Gala scheduled for Thursday, October 16th. The Gala is open to the public and tickets are now on sale.

The Northumberland Land Trust Gala is a fundraising event to support the conservation efforts of NLT, as well as the stewardship of its reserves.

Jill Heinerth redefined the boundaries of underwater exploration and scientific discovery. Her journey is a testament to the fusion of technology, courage, curiosity, and an unwavering commitment to understanding the hidden depths of our planet. She is the inaugural recipient of the Sir Christopher Ondaatje Medal for Exploration and was awarded Fellowships from the International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame, Underwater Academy of Arts and Sciences, Women Diver’s Hall of Fame, National Speleological Society, WINGS WorldQuest, and the Explorers Club, which further honored her with the distinguished William Beebe Award for ocean exploration.

“Anyone who is interested in the natural world and the exciting stories from exploring it at length will want to hear Jill’s stories,” said Freda Kennedy, Gala Organizer for the Northumberland Land Trust. “Jill is a tireless advocate for conservation, climate change, and water resource protection. She inspires action through her writing, photography, films, social media, podcasts, and speaking engagements.”

The Gala will also feature a silent auction that offers many opportunities to secure a personal item or to complete your early Christmas shopping. One of the special auction items this year is an original oil painting of NLT’s own Lone Pine Marsh Braham Nature Reserve, painted by local artist Inca Vos. Estimated value of $700.

Tickets for the Gala are $140 per person. Secure a table of eight for you and your friends, on sale for $1000 until July 16th! Tickets can be purchased through e-transfer or Canada Helps. Please specify the names and email addresses of those attending.
