The Art Party, A Benefit for the Evanston Art Center
The Evanston Art Center (EAC), a non-profit arts organization, proudly presents its 35th Annual Art Party taking place on Saturday, May 18, 2024, at 6:00 pm at 1717 Central Street.
For over 94 years, EAC has provided public outreach programs, exhibitions, and resources for art education. The Art Party is integral to the Evanston Art Center’s success. This yearly tradition includes silent and live auctions to raise money in support of EAC’s mission: fostering the appreciation and expression of the arts among diverse audiences. Last year, over 230 attendees from Chicago and North Shore areas raised over $100,000 for outreach, scholarship, and exhibition programs.
To purchase tickets, visit https://one.bidpal.net/artparty24/ticketing. Individual tickets cost $250. The price for all tickets includes a wonderful dinner by Food for Thought and the opportunity to bid on a selection of items in our silent and live auctions. Items include a vibrant range of artworks, hotel stays, restaurant certificates, weekend getaways, jewelry and accessories, sporting game tickets, and more!
This event is not only a lovely evening out but also an opportunity to support EAC’s important mission. Even if you can’t attend, you can still participate in the online auction by visiting: https://one.bidpal.net/artparty24/welcome.
