POP!

POP! is a celebration of Hunt Residencies and the emerging artists who are bursting onto the scene with new energy, creativity, and vision. This inaugural fundraiser will feature:

• Live Art Challenge with resident and mentor artists creating in real time.
• Art Sale with donated works from Hunt residents, mentors, and local artists, priced $100–$1,000. Each work corresponds to a balloon color — choose your balloon, pin it to your selected piece, and take home original art.
• Surprise Balloons at $50 and $100, each containing prizes valued at $50 or more, including gift cards, memberships, and one-of-a-kind experiences.

All proceeds directly support Hunt Residencies, fueling opportunities for artists at pivotal points in their careers. Join us for a night of creativity, community, and surprises — because this event is going to POP!
