have an extraordinary night – help make the arts in st. catharines extraordinary!
The Niagara Artists Centre and Rodman Arts Institute of Niagara are joining forces to raise funds by raising the roof—All for one and all at once!
Join us on Saturday 11 May at the Rodman Hall Boutique Hotel (you know the place), for a one-of-a-kind culinary experience prepared by some of Niagara’s finest chefs, a live auction of incredible art work, special surprise entertainments, and a dance & video party hosted by Routine Exploits and Runit Dome. Guests can jump in for the whole shebang with an overnight stay in one of the hotel’s lavishly appointed rooms. We’ll have the run of the joint!
krashing: the party is brought to you by the same minds and talents that produced the legendary STRUTT Wearable Art Show.
Put on your most swellegant attire and let’s carouse a while! We’ll change the shape of the place!
Polish your paddles and bid on a curated selection of works by artists from Niagara and beyond, while enjoying a complimentary cocktail, fresh shucked oysters, and canapés by Dispatch, Tide & Vine, and Wandering Spirits.
