2021 Barnes Art Ball

About the Art Ball

Our annual fundraiser, the Barnes Art Ball, takes place on-site, Friday, October 15, at 6pm.

Join fellow artists, collectors, philanthropists, community partners, thought leaders, and connectors as we reconvene in person for a night of diverse and dynamic creative experiences.

Our team is committed to staging a spectacular celebration while ensuring safe ways to support and attend. Artistic encounters will surprise and delight throughout our building, gardens, and expansive West Terrace. In the Roberts Gallery, Suzanne Valadon: Model, Painter, Rebel will set the tone for a dazzling evening!

For those who prefer a more intimate experience—celebrate at the Artful Champagne Brunch on Saturday, October 16, at 9am, and support the Barnes in a more structured setting with limited attendance. (Purchase individual or corporate Artful Champagne Brunch tickets.)

Safety is our priority. The Barnes’s enhanced safety protocols are based on current city and state mandates and guidelines. Read more about our health and safety protocols here.

BEST OF ALL? IT’S FOR A GOOD CAUSE
Art, community, entertainment, and philanthropy. The Barnes Art Ball raises critical funds that ensure the future of the Foundation’s educational mission, exhibition program, and wide array of community, artistic, and scholarly projects.
