More details...

Join us on May 2 for Art Enables at 25: Piece of Cake! Gala, a joyful celebration marking 25 years of creativity, community, and artistic leadership in Washington, DC. For a quarter century, Art Enables has championed artists with disabilities as professionals and cultural contributors. This milestone evening honors that legacy and fuels what comes next.

The celebration will feature a buffet dinner, open bar, silent auction, and a live program highlighting the artists and community that have shaped our story.

Tickets are $150 per guest. Proceeds directly support the creative and professional growth of artists with disabilities, spotlight their vital contributions to the arts, and strengthen an inclusive arts community through public engagement and awareness.

Cocktail attire is encouraged, with a touch of silver in honor of our 25th anniversary.

Make an even bigger impact by covering the cost of attendance for a resident artist, making it possible for the artists at the heart of Art Enables to celebrate alongside you. Your ticket purchase for an resident artist is 100% tax-dedutible. 

Come raise a glass and help shape the future of Art Enables!
