Collectors Night 2022

Collectors’ Night 2022, our eagerly anticipated annual benefit, to be held on Friday, June 3, 2022—in-person for the first time in three years. Because it has been a while since we last physically gathered, we’re doing things a little differently: 100–150 artists and patrons will sit down for an elegant, family-style, dinner and performance. Dinner will be followed by a larger, more raucous party with music and dancing. The evening’s theme—Your Presence is the Best Art—is inspired by the artist James Lee Byars (1932–1997) and celebrates our return to gathering together.
Collectors’ Night earned its name because of the extraordinary opportunity it offers guests to purchase museum-quality artwork by a selection of phenomenal artists. Guests will be able to preview, in person, artworks that will be auctioned on Artsy, the leading online venue for art sales, between June 3 to June 17.
We’re grateful to the many museum curators and artists who have helped us identify artists for the auction. They include Peter Barberie (Philadelphia Museum of Art), Nora Severson Cafritz (Glenstone), Kanitra Fletcher (National Gallery of Art), Corin Hewit (artist, Richmond), Renée Stout (artist, DC), Gee Wesley (MoMA), Cecilia Wichmann (Baltimore Museum of Art), and many others.
