DART FOR ART | JULY 12 & 13, 2023
Join us on Wednesday, July 12 and Thursday, July 13, in downtown Bay Harbor for two unforgettable evenings to celebrate the arts.
This year's featured artist, Alan Maciag has created a masterpiece to serve as inspiration for the event.
His featured artwork, Boat Launch, will be auctioned off live on stage at Dart for Art.
Proceeds benefit CTAC's mission to inspire and enrich lives through the arts in Northern Michigan...it's a party with a purpose!
2023 Event Chairs: Kathleen Davis and Karen Quenneville
PREVIEW NIGHT | WEDNESDAY, JULY 12
Join us on Wednesday, July 12, 6 - 9 PM, for Preview Night complete with strolling heavy appetizers, drinks, live music, and silent auction as guests mix and mingle with artists to preview the Dart for Art gallery. Enjoy strolling tastes from your favorite chefs & restaurants and beer, wine, and specialty cocktails as you preview the Dart Gallery & more!
THE MAIN EVENT | THURSDAY, JULY 13
The Main Event on Thursday, July 13, 6 - 10 PM will wow guests with delectable dining, unique auction items, and astounding artwork in the Dart Gallery—guests will be invited to select a work of art to take home—at no extra cost!
Enjoy cocktail hour with appetizers by featured chefs, top-shelf bar, gourmet seated dinner by Chef Eric Basta of NOMAD, silent and live auctions, entertainment, and everyone's favorite part of the evening—"darting" for your choice of artwork to take home from the Dart Gallery.
What is "darting?"
The Dart for Art Gallery features more than 200 pieces of original artwork, including paintings, photography, jewelry, ceramics, sculpture, glasswork, and more! Ticket-holders will get to select a work of art when their name is called — the order in which art is selected is the luck of the draw! When your name is called, you will run ("dart") and grab your piece of artwork off the wall!
