Artclectic 2019 is here

Our three-day art show begins Thursday, October 24. There's something for everyone: parties, art, shopping, and family activities. Don't miss it.
By Michelle Rosen, USNA Communications Co-Chair

We hope you’ve made plans to attend our annual art show, Thursday, October 24 through Saturday, October 26. During Fall Break, our gym underwent its magical transformation into a beautiful art gallery, featuring fabulous parties, beautiful art, and festivities for every family and every budget. And the festivities to follow can’t be missed.

Artclectic kicks off with an elegant Patrons Party on Thursday, October 24, and reservations are still available but going fast. Friday, October 25 features a fun lunch and lecture by photographer Anouk Krantz, a student art reception after school, and of course our free and fabulous ARTbash party at night. Saturday, October 26 feels like a family day with live music, children's activities, and Halloween crafts, plus it’s the last day our gallery is open. And don’t forget POPclectic, the pop-up artisan market with goods under $250. It’s a great chance to buy holiday gifts or something fun for yourself.

In its 23rd year, Artclectic benefits USN's Fund for Innovative Teaching, which provides grants for teacher training to enrich classroom life. Check out the event lineup and artists at artclectic.org, or follow us on Facebook or Instagram.
