BoHo Bazaar: Party on Purpose

“BoHo Bazaar”, a benefit for New York Artists Equity Association, riffs on high-end art fairs with a healthy dose of 80s downtown DIY nostalgia served up with the fun and accessibility of flea markets, rent parties, and school cake sales. Attendees will be treated to an extravagant assortment of curated “booths” featuring affordable art works, printed matter, craft items and vintage collectibles. Done browsing? No worries; it’s an art party. Grab a beer, sit for a portrait, watch a printmaking demo or bid on guest artists’ drawings of barely clothed models—all while listening to ambient punk rock music.

Downtown luminaries Charles Busch, John Kelly, Gracie Mansion, Carlo McCormick, Chris Tanner (and more) will be honored.
