About this Event
Mud, Sweat, & Tears: Get Down & Dirty for Another 10 Years of Artshack!
Friday, April 24 7:00 PM – 11:00 PM
Join us for Mud, Sweat, & Tears!, a wild, joyous Earth Day fundraiser for Artshack Brooklyn, where clay, community, and spectacle collide for one unforgettable night.
Established in 2016, Artshack Brooklyn is a nonprofit community ceramics studio in Bed-Stuy dedicated to making clay accessible to everyone. Rooted in the neighborhood, Artshack provides a welcoming space where residents of all ages and abilities can make, learn, and connect through clay. Our mission is to sustain and celebrate Bed-Stuy’s cultural fabric by centering community creativity and ensuring ceramics remains a practice of belonging, curiosity, and care. By uplifting local artists and encouraging curiosity-based learning, Artshack continues to nurture creativity across generations.
And now… we fight for it. Literally.
To celebrate Earth Day and support the next decade of Artshack, the night’s main attraction will be MUD & CLAY WRESTLING — featuring wrestlers from A Matter of Pride alongside brave patrons willing to step into the ring and fight for the arts.
The evening will be hosted by drag queen sensations Princess B*tch and The Boy Diva, guiding you through a chaotic, campy, clay-soaked spectacle where donors and guests can nominate competitors, volunteer themselves, and help crown the night’s ultimate mud champion.
As donations roll in, the wrestling card will build throughout the leadup to the event — meaning you could be responsible for the next legendary showdown.
