About Collectors’ Night & the WPA Art Auction
One of the most anticipated annual events on the DC art calendar, Collectors’ Night is a fundraising party that supports artists and WPA’s artist-organized programs. This year, Collectors’ Night will be held on Friday, June 3, in a rooftop venue near the National Portrait Gallery/SAAM. The event kicks off the WPA Art Auction, a two-week sale on Artsy featuring the work of 94 artists from the DC and beyond. Featured artists include Derrick Adams, Woody De Othello, Dean Kessman, Maggie Michael, and Renée Stout.
