It’s time to get out your brightest britches, slickest dancing slippers, and any of those skeletons hiding in your closet! This year SPACES’ Annual Benefit and Auction, ¡Mambo Muerto!, gets a jolt of Latin flavor, thanks to a little inspiration from Day of the Dead. On Saturday, November 1, 2008 from 9pm–1am, Cleveland’s creatives come out of the woodwork donned in their wildest garb to enjoy fabulous food and music that will keep the gallery thumping. But best of all, SPACES will be packed wall-to-wall with art by all of our favorite regional and national artists for the silent auction. To pay tribute to one of Mexico’s most beloved holidays, El Dia de los Muertos, we ask that guests bring something to honor their family and friends who have passed on to place on our altar. Tickets: $40
This year, in honor of SPACES 30th Anniversary, thirty artists who have shown in the gallery since the beginning have been curated into the silent auction. Reminisce, ogle some outstanding art, and add to your personal collection.
Feeling mucho VIP? Join us at 6pm for an auction featuring all-star artists and spectacular packages including a Mexican getaway! Enjoy fine dining, an exquisite environment to rub shoulders with other VIPs, and first dibs at all of the amazing art. Tickets: $125
Each year, 500–600 people come to party in support of SPACES’ mission to advance the artists’ vision, while providing the resources and an audience to actively engage the community in a public dialogue on contemporary art. Join us and support Cleveland’s largest and oldest alternative art space.
