The Bronx Museum

Futura 2000 received the Trailblazer Award presented by Zephyr; Ebony G. Patterson received the Visionary Award presented by Miranda Lash; and Abbott Stillman received The Bronx Creative Vanguard Award presented by Brigitte Mulholland.

We are truly grateful to all who joined us and contributed to such a lively event. The evening featured R&B star Amber Mark, who gave a remarkable performance, followed by a set from DJ Pete Butta.

Special thanks to our emcee Marysol Castro of PIX11 News and Kimberly Pirtle of Sotheby’s, who conducted a spirited live art auction that featured coveted artworks donated by talented artists like Futura 2000, Awol Erizku, Gamaliel Rodríguez, and Abbott Stillman.

The auction was followed by a pledge drive that raised funds for the Museum’s K-12  free art education programs. All proceeds from the Auction directly support the Museum’s commitment to make contemporary art accessible to all.

We thank our Gala Host Committee: Courtney Burbela, Cate Caruso, Rachel Cole, Dana Emmott, Danielle Falls, Elizabeth Jiménez, Marvin Lalin, Nadia Meratla, Melissa Osterwind, Anne Parke, Martha Reyes, and Robin Roche and After-Party Co-Hosts, Danielle Falls, Elizabeth Jimenez, and Anne Parke for their leadership and cheerleading in crafting a terrific event and our Board of Trustees for their generosity and fundraising savvy.

Thank you to the over 450 guests who purchased tables, tickets, and made donations in support of The Bronx Museum!
