5:30pm - 6:30pm — Collectors' Preview
6:30pm - 9:30pm — General Admission
Since its founding in 1947, New York Artists Equity Association (NYAE) has championed the professional aspirations of artists, many of whom have been integral to shaping America’s cultural landscape. We invite you to join us on May 11, 2022 for a fundraising benefit to celebrate NYAE’s 75th Anniversary, honor our storied past, and raise money to ensure NYAE’s bright future and continued support for artists.
The evening spotlights NYAE’s core mission and the talents of our artist community with 7 x 5, a stunning collection of 7x5” works in a range of media and styles, created and donated by member artists specifically for the event. Works will be for sale for $300 each throughout the evening, with all proceeds going to support NYAE. Be sure to get first dibs by buying Collectors’ Preview tickets!
We are also proud to pay tribute to the life and work of one of NYAE’s founding members, post-war American sculptor Chaim Gross (1902-1991), along with performances by cellist Sarah Song, performance artist and singer John Kelly, and poet Robyn Gibson. Beer, wine, non-alcoholic beverages, and plant-based hors d’oeuvres provided. Dancing encouraged!
Tickets are available through the above link. If you are unable to attend, please consider making a fully tax-deductible donation.
