Black & White Party
The Black & White Party is Discover Roxbury's annual fundraiser to support local artists and advance arts education and programming in Roxbury. Net proceeds from the event directly support the operations of Roxbury Open Studios, the ArtROX! Hub, and other events in the ArtROX! series. Come experience a unique evening where the decor, artwork for sale, and food (to the extent possible) will all be black and white. This void of color serves to remind us all of how important artists are in bringing color to our lives. You'll be in the company of artists, art lovers, emerging fashion designers, and social leaders from across Greater Boston. Bring your business cards and creative energy for a night of mixing, mingling, and creative exploration with a diverse crowd where art, dance, and community collide.
6-10pm / $25 Purchase here.

Problems aren’t solved but rather presented, ideas aren’t practical but instead potent -- an uncontrolled burn versus any real concern with measuring the heat. The work is personal and political, refined yet suspicious. It possesses a guarded optimism and is laced with humor. It goes to the core of how the world actually works and who felt what.
