ANNUAL WATERMILL CENTER SUMMER BENEFIT

presented by

VAN CLEEF & ARPELS

honoring

KATHARINE RAYNER & CARRIE MAE WEEMS

Described as an enchanted forest and performance art extravaganza, the Annual Watermill Center Summer Benefit unites the worlds of art, performance, music, theatre, design, architecture and fashion. All funds raised support The Center’s year-round Artist Residency and Education Programs that provide a unique environment for young and emerging artists to explore and develop new work.

COCKTAILS: art installations, performances, silent auction. 6:00-8:00PM.

DINNER: live auction by Simon de Pury. 8:00-10:00PM

AFTER-PARTY: dessert, dancing, dj set. 10:00PM

The Watermill Center, 39 Watermill Towd Road, Water Mill, NY. 6:00 PM – MIDNIGHT.

THE AUCTION: TABULA RASA marks a new direction for the Benefit auction. Previously, donating artists received complimentary tickets to the event. This year, however, The Foundation will offer the option to receive a twenty percent commission fee from the winning bid. Now, the purchase of an artwork not only supports Watermill and its year-round programming but also the artists who make the auction possible.

LIVE AUCTION kicks off at 9:00 PM. SILENT AUCTION ends at 11:45 PM. PLACE YOUR BIDS TODAY!

The Watermill Center Auction is live on Artsy from July 9 through July 27, 2019. For all auction inquiries, please email [e-mail].
