Lubeznik Center for the Arts announces annual ArtBash fundraising event

ArtBash:Repaint the Town
Virtual Gala

Free Event
September 25, 2021
6 - 7 PM (Central)

Lubeznik Center for the Arts (LCA) is thrilled to announce its biggest annual fundraising event, Artbash: Repaint the Town. Taking place virtually on September 25, from 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM (CST), Artbash proceeds directly impact communities across Indiana's northwest region. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, proceeds from this annual gala enable LCA to further its mission to provide the community access to compelling exhibitions and programs that explore contemporary ideas.

ArtBash: Repaint the Town will feature live entertainment — a reading of an original poem by Ming Washington. Written specifically for the occasion, it celebrates Michigan City and the arts. Ming is currently a member of the AUC Collective for the Study of Art History and Curatorial Studies at Spelman College and is a published poet and arts contributor to Scalawag Magazine. 

The event will also feature a painting demonstration by artist Patricia Larkin Green. Patricia is an international Sumi-e and oil painter who has a long list of artistic accolades and honors, including induction into the International Chinese Calligraphic Art and Ink Painters Society. Patricia currently serves as its North America Exhibition Coordinator. 

In addition, a silent auction will be available during the hour-long event and includes wonderfully unique and sought-after items. Get a sneak peek at the auction items, or better yet, register for the auction and event at: lubeznikcenter.home.qtego.net
