Let's be real: Silent auctions are usually snoozy affairs. But if there’s any organization that could swank 'em up, it’s MOCA. The museum’s hosting a stellar event this Saturday, and offering art aficionados the chance to own some prize-worthy pieces. The sale (aptly titled FRESH), features over 250 works by artists like John Baldessari, Judy Chicago, Cindy Sherman, Ed Ruscha, and Shepard Fairey.
Art buffs can start the bidding now via the amazing online art portal Paddle8, but the formal auction will take place Saturday evening. And after the war's over, you can get busy on the dance floor to some live tunes. A visual feast and beats? We're sold. Snag yourself a discounted ticket here — but just make sure not to wait until they’re going, going, gone!
When:
Saturday, March 24, 6 to 10 p.m.
Where:
MOCA Grand Avenue, 250 South Grand Avenue (between 2nd and 3rd streets); 213-626-6222.
