This annual benefit directly helps Edward Hopper House close gaps in arts education through partnerships in public schools, family workshops, and our “Nighthawks” youth leadership program. Since 2016, over 1,000 children and teens in Rockland, Orange, and Westchester counties have engaged in this award-winning program. It has as much to do about creating a great artist or interest in art history, as it does about building self-esteem through peer interaction.

This year's event was held at a romantic Second Empire house in Sparkill, NY. We give special thanks to Marc Rosen for graciously hosting the benefit at "Treetops" and for supporting Edward Hopper House's programs with public schools. Guests enjoyed an open bar, passed hors d'oeuvres and an elegant buffet on the great lawn and guest speakers and auctions to support our mission and great cause!
