BURNAWAY’s boisterous Art Crush Auction is just over a month away, and our site is now live! Our third annual event will be held on March 22 at Le Maison Rouge at the fabulous Paris on Ponce, where tasty bites from Noni’s Deli, Argosy, Bookhouse Pub, and Octopus Bar will be on offer, along with our signature cocktail from Sound Table and libations from Cutty Sark and Macallan. Our MC this year is the always entertaining Ellisorous Rex.

Visit our auction site to check out the lineup, peruse this year’s Crushes, and buy your tickets. Get your ticket in advance and save ten bucks—$40 now or $50 at the door. Or go all out and join the host committee ($150 individual/$275 couple) and gain access to our VIP Preview Party at the studio of Katherine Taylor on March 20.
The live auction will feature unique experiences with artists, including a river cleanup and studio visit with Hudgens Prize winner Pam Longobardi, a ceramic workshop with Jiha Moon, a family portrait by Lydia Walls, a mountain bike trip with Rusty Wallace, a studio visit and concrete block souvenir from Scott Ingram, an organic dinner party with Katherine Taylor, a cross-stitch evening with Aubrey Longley-Cook, a day of art-hopping with High Museum curator Michael Rooks, and more.
