Five Points annual Art Heist is an evening of tomfoolery during which ticket holders will abscond with a significant work of art donated by a professional artist. The Party begins with Thieves, Artists and Witnesses enjoying hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, entertainment, and the opportunity to help “case” the 50 pieces of art on display. Then the Heist begins! The Mastermind takes his/her pick of the treasures, then the Cat Burglars – dash as a group, each with the goal of snatching their favorite piece of art in just three minutes. The Artnabbers perform the next caper, followed by the Bandits, then Robbers, with the Artful Dodgers scrambling for the remaining works of art. All proceeds benefit Five Points Gallery’s exhibition and education programming.
