Charting The Course For The Next 100 Years —The Voyage of the Mount! Mount St. Mary Academy's Chrysalis Gala 2027!

As Mount St. Mary Academy embarks on the journey toward its 100th anniversary, we invite our community to come aboard for Voyage of the Mount, the 2027 Annual Chrysalis Gala and Auction. Inspired by the elegance and adventure of sailing and cruising, this signature evening will serve as the official kickoff to a century of celebration!

Together, we will honor the rich legacy of the Mount, celebrate the spirit of our community, and set our sights on an exciting future. As we gather to support the school and its mission, Voyage of the Mount will remind us that when it comes to empowering our students, there is no limit to the horizons we can reach.

A Look Back At Chrysalis 2026 – Run For The Roses!

It was a winning night at the Kentucky Derby for Mount St. Mary Academy’s 31st Annual Chrysalis Auction & Gala!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an unforgettable evening of mint juleps, fabulous Derby hats, friendly competition, and incredible support for the MSM community. From exciting auction moments and inspiring guest speakers to the laughter and generosity throughout the room, it truly was a night to remember.

We were honored to recognize our 2026 Chrysalis Honorees — the past and present members of the MSM Board of Trustees and our beloved school chaplain, Msgr. Francis Weldgen — for their many years of service and dedication to Mount St. Mary Academy.

A special thank you to our inspiring guest speakers, the Breen sisters — Molly ’24, Ciara ’27, and Fiona ’30 — for sharing what MSM means to your family and our community.
