Event Description:
Purchase Party brings together art lovers to vote for the next work of art to enter The Museum’s Permanent Collection. This year's theme is American Illustration. Attendees enjoy hors d’oeuvres and fine wine while considering the five works of art that are displayed as “candidates” for purchase by The Museum. After hearing pitches for each work from The Museum’s curatorial team, attendees cast their votes and the winner is announced as the next artwork to enter the Permanent Collection.
