Many historic cars and automotive skills are being lost over time. Younger generations may not have chances to learn restoration or understand automotive history. Preserving this knowledge helps protect an important part of culture and innovation.
America’s Automotive Trust works to preserve automotive history and support future automotive professionals. They help educate and inspire the next generation of restorers, builders, and car enthusiasts. To continue this mission, they are hosting their biggest fundraiser of the year.
The Wheels & Heels Annual Gala 2026 will take place on September 12, 2026 from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM at LeMay – America’s Car Museum in Tacoma, Washington. Guests can enjoy a cocktail reception, seated dinner, live entertainment, auctions, fireworks, and an after-party. This event helps fund programs that preserve automotive heritage and support hands-on learning for future restorers and enthusiasts.
Get tickets here to support automotive history and inspire the next generation of restorers.
