About this Event
Join us Thursday, October 24, from 7-10 pm for the 2024 NEWARK FALL BALL, an annual dance party celebrating Newark's glorious cultural community!
This fun fête brings together members from across the city's creative scene: from soulful musicians to world-renowned DJs to visual artists of all disciplines to dancers and beyond.
This year's theme is inspired by our Artist In Residence, Azikiwe Mohammed. His solo exhibition, Trains, Buses, and The Four Cs, is the inaugural exhibition at this location and will be on view during the event. The exhibition offers a high-energy, hands-on, immersive installation to highlight our community's collective spirit.
We invite guests to dress in the brightest colors, bold textures, wild patterns, art-inspired getups, neon, and everything in between! The night includes small bites from local culinary wizards, electric cocktails, and a dance floor that will come alive with the beats of local DJs. It promises to be the ultimate art-party.
The 2024 FALL BALL will be held at Project for Empty Space, located at 110 Edison Place, Newark, New Jersey. Prior to the main event at 6 pm, PES Co-Directors/Curators invite a limited number of guests to a champagne reception and tour of PES STUDIOS down the block.

About Project for Empty Space
Project for Empty Space (PES) is a multifaceted arts organization that includes Exhibitions, Artists' Residencies, Public Art initiatives, subsidized Artist Studios, and Artist Professional Development/Granting opportunities. Our programs lean social discourse, including narratives that have been historically and systemically erased. We strive to course-correct historical instances of forced marginality, in-equity, and in-visibility. Today, in our efforts to support socially-oriented artists, we maintain a commitment to holding space for both looking back and looking to new potentials and futures.
PES is a woman-run, femme-powered, People of the Global Majority/BIPOC, Queer, and unapologetically Intersectional organization. Our permanent homes are in Newark, NJ, and Chinatown, New York City.
