With the encouragement and blessing of Archbishop Richard Smith, the SJC Ignite Gala has been officially merged with the Friars' Ball. In recognition of the Friars celebrating their 50th Anniversary this year, SJC will join together with the Friars for the first time in a joint fundraising event on Friday, May 3, 2019 at the Edmonton Convention Centre (formerly called the Shaw Conference Centre), Hall D.
As a result, SJC will no longer host the Ignite Gala in November. Instead, our efforts will be coordinated with those of the Friars' Ball Board members to create a single fundraising gala for Catholic post-secondary education under the auspices of the Archdiocese of Edmonton. We wish to thank all those who have faithfully supported us through attending our annual Gala in the past and invite you to join us on May 3 for the Friars' Ball.
