The Armory Art Center’s annual fundraiser, Art Throwdown, returns on February 6, from 6 to 9:30 p.m.

Part performance and part art sale, five artists will go head-to-head to produce creative and compelling artwork within a 90-minute challenge. The competition involves a shared supply table and a “mystery box” of unusual materials—forcing artists to be resourceful and innovative as the clock winds down.

Guests can mix and mingle while enjoying sips, bites, live entertainment, and a silent auction during the competition. Attendees will also have the chance to vote for the winner.

After the Throwdown, all artworks will go up for live auction, and the winning artist will receive a solo exhibition at the Armory Art Center in West Palm Beach.

While at the Armory, attendees can view the “Annual Instructor and Student Exhibition and Art Sale” on view to March 6. The exhibition celebrates works created throughout the year by the organization’s instructors and student artists.

Art Throwdown tickets are $250 per person. Advance purchase is recommended, as limited tickets will be available at the door. For more information, visit armoryart.org.
