About the Events

Curator’s Cut
Friday, September 19 • 5:00 - 9:00 pm
Includes four-course dinner, open bar, and tickets to The AFTERPARTY

Step into an evening of refined elegance and artistic insight at Curator’s Cut, an exclusive VIP experience blending fine dining with unparalleled access to the Long Beach Museum of Art’s most anticipated fundraising event. Guests will enjoy a thoughtfully curated dinner alongside museum leadership and fellow art patrons, followed by an early preview of the Silent Auction and a spirited Live Auction featuring rare, high-value works of art and incredible experiences. This is a night for those who believe in the transformative power of art and in building a future where creativity is accessible to all.

The AFTERPARTY
Saturday, September 20 • 6:00 - 10:00 pm
Includes an OPEN BAR, a charcuterie table, and 5 different appetizers

When the lights dim, the energy rises. The AFTERPARTY is where art meets celebration in a spectacular fusion of music, movement, and inspiration. Featuring over 150 original artworks in the Silent Auction, this high-energy night includes cocktails, dancing, a live DJ, and musical performances that turn the museum into a vibrant cultural playground. It’s a night to connect, discover, and support the arts in a setting unlike any other.

A Legacy of Access: Why Your Attendance Matters
This isn’t just a fundraiser—it’s a catalyst for change. Proceeds from Art Auction fuel the Long Beach Museum of Art’s year-round exhibitions and its award-winning arts education initiatives. At the heart of these programs is a vital partnership with the Long Beach Unified School District, where each year, more than 5,000 fifth-grade students participate in free museum field trips that include immersive gallery experiences and hands-on art workshops led by professional teaching artists and museum educators.

When you attend Curator’s Cut or The Afterparty, you’re not just investing in a memorable evening; you’re investing in the future. You’re helping us ensure that creativity remains a right, not a privilege. You’re becoming part of a legacy that believes every child deserves the chance to see the world through a creative lens and to make their mark on it.
