Local Project marks its 15 years of programming and friendship by hosting its first Anti-Gala at the Secret Theater on Saturday, November 3, 2018. This is an invitation for LP’s community of supporters and friends to celebrate and help raise funds. The proceeds collected from the Anti-Gala will help support Local Project continue to provide a space for local artists to exhibit their work, engage the community, and serve the Long Island City community at large. As of today, LP has hosted over 400 exhibitions featuring more than 2,000 artists from around the globe.
The Anti-Gala will be hosted by DJ and impresario Luis Rosas and will feature a creative menu catered by Michelin star Chef M Wells. The Aztec dance group Yayauhki Tezcatlipoka will perform, thanking and honoring the legacy of our ancestors through music and dance. There will also be a performance piece by artist Jaguar Mary X and later in the evening, music spun DJ Paway. Please join Local Project for this memorable evening. Tickets can be purchased on their website at localproject.org.
