The MacDowell Virtual National Benefit 2020: Invest In Artists
October 19, 2020
On Monday, October 19th, at 7:50 p.m. MacDowell artists, supporters, board, and friends will gather virtually on this page, led by MacDowell Chair and evening host Nell Painter, to celebrate our program and the presentation of the inaugural Marian MacDowell Arts Advocacy Award to ARRAY. ARRAY founder Ava DuVernay will accept the award from Ford Foundation President Darren Walker and from former MacDowell Board member and former Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts Jane Alexander.
This year's theme is Invest In Artists – their work and their vision for the future. Our fundraising goal is to secure MacDowell's financial future and expand our financial aid program to provide artists with equal access to our space and resources.
The benefit, which is free and open to the public, will premiere here at 7:50 pm ET. Click the button below to RSVP and to receive emails with exclusive event recipes and program information!
