November 20th - Thursday
Jersey City Museum is pleased to announce it's Sixth Annual ArtRageous Ball which will take place on Thursday, November 20th, 2008, at The Harborside Atrium on the Jersey City waterfront. Jersey City Museum has been called “The most dynamic contemporary art site in New Jersey” by The New York Times and each year the ArtRageous Ball is host to a sell-out crowd comprised of real estate developers, financial services professionals, artists, cultural enthusiasts and elected officials throughout the state. This year's all-new, exciting theme is Carnivale and the glitzy night will ensure lots of food, drink, games, performers and more!
All proceeds from the ArtRageous Ball benefit the Jersey City Museum's general operations, which assist in welcoming over 25,000 visitors each year, including the 11,000 children who attend arts education programs.
