Night of Artists 

One of the premier Western art events in the world, Night of Artists includes the viewing and sale of over 270 new works of painting, sculpture and mixed media by more than 80 of today’s leading contemporary Western artists.

Night of Artists was created to celebrate Western art and the Briscoe would not exist without the artistic seeds that Night of Artists planted. The effort and funds to establish the museum grew from Night of Artists, making it a vital piece of the museum’s history as well as its signature annual event. Night of Artists serves as the primary fundraiser for the museum, benefiting the Briscoe’s full array of exhibitions, engagement, and educational programs throughout the year.
