Gallery Aferro has announced the 7th Annual Benefit Art Auction and Party on June 13th, 2015. This event features an exciting auction of hundreds of artworks by emerging and established artists, live music by Emily and the Ideals (“old jazz, flamenco pop, Brazilian bossa, American soul”), fun activities including interactive performance art by Jackie Du and outdoor art selfie stations, signature cocktails and endless icy craft beer from Hunterdon Brewery, fine catering, and dozens of wonderful door and raffle prizes including two getaway destination packages, hot air balloon ride, dancing lessons, and more! The afterparty (21+) starts at 10pm with all night live wax tracks from DJ Deep Creep for dancing.

All proceeds from tickets and purchases make possible Gallery Aferro’s year-round exhibitions, artist residencies, publications, public art, educational offerings, as well as our ongoing expansion as a downtown cultural hub.
