Countdown to Locust Projects’ tenth annual Spring Fling

The countdown to Locust Projects’ tenth annual Spring Fling at 1111 Lincoln Road parking garage on Miami Beach is on. This signature event is not to be missed.

Celebrate the non-profit exhibition space (dedicated to providing contemporary visual artists the freedom to experiment with new ideas without the pressures of gallery sales) at the Locust Projects 10th Annual Fundraiser. Riding on the excitement of its Art Basel success, Locust Projects has created an “Arabian Night” themed event complete with belly dancers. Guests will enjoy fare from Harry’s Pizzeria, Shake Shack, Yardbird, Misha’s Cupcakes, and drinks from Castle Brands, Madarine Napoleon, a tequila bar by Alacran, Perrier and Grolsch and beats by DJ Hottpants.

A luxury silent auction will feature items from Etro, Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink, Stella McCartney, Art Basel Miami Beach, Oscar de la Renta, Neiman Marcus, Sra. Martinez, The Standard, Taschen and many more.

But the highlight of the evening will be the “Who Done It” silent arts auction, a blind auction of original works by internationally renowned artists including Nathan Carter, Andy Coolquitt, Theaster Gates, Kate Gilmore, Kori Newkirk, Cristina Lei Rodriguez and Spencer Tunick. There’s a catch that makes the evening even more fun—you won’t know the artist you’re bidding on.
