On Saturday, May 2, we invite you to come together to change lives at our signature event, GoSeeDo 2026: The Art of Joy. This year marks a meaningful moment: the 25th anniversary of the Gift of Life fountain at The Stowers Institute for Medical Research.
As a progressive event, each guest experiences one of eleven concurrent tours, then all 400 guests meet at the Grand Hall at Power & Light for lite bites, silent and live auctions, and an inspiring program hosted by Gift of Life.
Our 2026 theme being The Art of Joy reflects on the fountain which honors organ donors whose generosity brings light and possibility into the lives of so many. Art also helps individuals and families touched by organ donation express identity, gratitude, grief, triumph, and hope. Art gives us a shared language for complex emotions – joy among them – and we are proud to lift up these stories within our community.
Sponsorships are available now and those that sponsor get to select their tours before the event opens to the public. This year we are pleased to offer free, convenient parking across the street thanks to Blue Cross Blue Shield Kansas City.
