By Susan Chapman, Artclectic Coordinator

In its 28-year history, Artclectic has aimed to be more than just an event that exhibits award-winning, show-stopping, inventive artwork; it’s been an event that brings the USN community together like none other.

Whether you’re a serious art lover or an enthusiastic mingler, the Patrons Party has historically been the launching event for Artclectic Weekend. It's a time to get dressed up, grab a cocktail and delicious food, peruse an elegantly transformed gymnasium full of beautiful art, and visit with friends old and new.

Patrons Party chairs Blake Murray and Liz Stemmler have planned a stunning evening and can't wait to welcome you to kick off the weekend with some Parisian style.

Join us on Thursday, October 17 from 6:30 - 9:30 p.m. Until Monday, October 6, we are offering an early bird discount of $100 per ticket, a $50 savings off the regular $150 price.

For those who would like to support innovative teaching at USN, we hope you will join us in becoming a patron at the Innovator level for $250 per person.

We owe special thanks to INSBANK for their generous sponsorship of the Patrons Party.

Tickets can be purchased here. 

Lastly, be sure to pick up a yard sign today from the USNA office, or if you can’t make it, submit a request here, and we’ll find a way to get one for you. Let’s showcase our community spirit and support for innovative teaching! 🙌
