It’s that time again—the Westminster Cloisters’ Biennial Creative Spirit Show of Fine Art and Craft is back! The festivities begin on Friday, February 21, with a champagne gala at 7 p.m. in the Great Hall. The gala celebrates the creative arts and is free to attend. Guests can view artwork and books created by Westminster members and the greater community, as well as enjoy hors d’oeuvres, drink champagne, meet the artists, listen to live jazz music, and bid on silent-auction items to benefit our Cloisters creative-arts program.
If you can’t attend the gala, please mark your calendar to come see the show during its run from Saturday, February 22, through Sunday, March 2. The show, which is free to attend, will be on display in our Great Hall. Viewing hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday – Saturday; from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, February 23; and 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, March 2. Be sure to check out the “Kids in the Cloisters” show running concurrently in our gallery, too. For more information, check out our February Chimes newsletter cover story on the art show.
