Textile-inspired works will also appear in the silent auction.
Attendees will enjoy an elegant evening featuring fine dining, signature drinks, raffles, silent and live auctions, dancing, and live music from The Monterio Experience.
GMoA is proud to debut the Nancy Monroe Artist of the Year Award, honoring outstanding artistic achievement in North Carolina and commemorating the legacy of sculptor Nancy Monroe (1931–2024). The inaugural 2026 honoree is George Crisman Snyder III, an artist, muralist, and contemporary quilter known for his bold geometric style. A special pop-up exhibition of Snyder’s work will be showcased during the event.
