On October 1, 2025, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art announced that Doja Cat will serve as musical guest for its 2025 Art+Film Gala. The event honors artist Mary Corse and filmmaker Ryan Coogler. It is co-chaired by LACMA trustee Eva Chow and actor Leonardo DiCaprio and takes place on November 1, 2025. Gucci continues as presenting sponsor.

The Signal

The choice of Doja Cat reflects LACMA's ongoing effort to link contemporary art programming with broader cultural audiences through its signature annual event. Pairing the performer with Corse and Coogler underscores the museum's focus on intersections between visual art and film. For collectors and curators, the sustained participation of established co-chairs and sponsors indicates the gala's continued weight in the Los Angeles institutional calendar.
