THE WOMEN OF MAP:

ANNUAL BENEFIT, EXHIBITION AND AUCTION

Cocktails, delicious food, silent and live auctions
Tickets $200 per person
Attire: Dress Madly

This year’s benefit, "The Women of MAP" (or WOMs as we like to call them), is comprised of some of the area’s most prominent business women, community leaders, and art supporters. The WOMs have promised to treat everyone to what could be the most elegant and anticipated contemporary arts event of the decade!  The evening will begin with cocktails and a preview of the artwork, followed by a stimulating live auction filled with incredible art and non-art packages including trips, and one-of-a-kind objects. Sumptuous food, dessert, and an open bar will be provided throughout the evening—all of which has been generously donated by area vendors. Guests will also have an opportunity to bid on over eighty pieces artwork in the silent auction, which will close at 9:30 pm.  Proceeds from the Women of MAP gala, directly supports MAP’s ongoing programming and educational initiatives throughout the year.
