Sean Mount, and Rye Tippett
Longtime Chairman of the Board, Mayor Laurence Keller, states: "We are delighted to see that founder Robin Larsen’s nascent vision continues to grow and come to life. It's not only an honor, but a true community inspiration to be part of New Hope Arts and witness the reality of our collective passion and commitment. Our area’s arts scene is truly elevating, and I’m proud to say that the New Hope Arts Center has been a valuable and treasured contributor and surely deserves celebrating. I’m eager to be at the auction podium to engage the community for one of New Hope’s greatest causes on May 24th!”
In addition to the auctions, guests will enjoy hors d'oeuvres, small plates, libations, and live music by New Hope's treasured entertainer, Bob Egan, while meeting fellow supporters and Board Members to learn about the future, transformational plans for the Art Center.
"This Gala is a true celebration of all the artists, patrons, members, volunteers, and others who have passionately supported our institution for the past two decades. Having everyone in the same room, energized by our next chapter, is simply exhilarating. Our auctions for the evening will not only raise funds, but showcase the quality and generosity of work and opportunities provided by our participating Arts Community.” – NHA Executive Director Carol Cruickshanks
