OOO is a highly celebrated exhibition-event, and a ‘one-night-only’ opportunity for patrons and collectors to acquire contemporary art at unbelievably low silent auction prices.

This year’s theme for OOO is TRASHED - featuring monster trucks + drag wrestling hosted by none other than Kenny Rooster. We will have a flash tattoo artist and arm wrestling hosted by Gunz of Steel in the basement.  Attendees of the event can expect light fare, open bar, DJ Aaron Keating, ‘drag queens in theme’ and more. Raffle will be announced during the event @ 8 PM.

About the Artist

Sierra Iola is an American visual artist whose multi-media painting uses dense bold graphics to explore ubiquitous systems of modernity. She creates layered work addressing car-centricity, and isolation examining its deleterious impact on mental health, the environment and social issues. Her systematic approach to art has assisted in the foundation of research that surrounds her painting practice. 

Sierra earned her Bachelors in painting, drawing and printmaking from Towson University and plans to pursue a Master of Fine Art degree. 

Please join us on Sunday, March 1 from 1 PM to 3 PM  for a champagne reception at Hotel Indigo located at 24 West Franklin St.
