SUMMARY:A Portrait of Converse: An Evening of Art and Impact
DESCRIPTION:There’s something magical about the creativity and community of Converse. Join us for a celebration of the arts\, featuring a curated exhibition and auction including works by Converse students\, alumni\, and community artists. \nGuests will have the opportunity to experience and learn more about the artists and their work while celebrating Converse’s longstanding commitment to the arts\, creativity\, and the transformative power of education. Artwork featured in the auction has been generously donated to Converse University by participating artists\, with 100% of the auction proceeds benefiting the Converse Fund\, which supports the people\, programs\, and places that make the Converse experience possible. \nAmong the featured pieces is a beautiful portrait of Converse’s Wilson Hall by local artist Alix Refshauge. The original\, owned by Converse University\, will be available for bidding during the event. Signed prints of Alix’s beautifully rendered portrait will also be available for purchase throughout the evening. \nEvery auction purchase\, event ticket\, and sponsorship helps strengthen the Converse experience while celebrating and expanding the connection between the University\, the arts\, and our broader community. We hope you will join us on campus for this special evening of art\, storytelling\, and connection\, featuring heavy hors d’oeuvres\, a hosted bar\, live music\, and a connected community. \nBe sure you’re on our mailing list for event and campus updates! \nPurchase Tickets \nConverse staff & faculty are eligible for discounted tickets; email caroline.goodman@converse.edu for details.
