On October 27, ICI's friends and patrons from around the world gathered virtually to celebrate ICI's mission to create stronger art communities, empower new voices, champion global solidarity, and advance civic-minded practice within the curatorial field.
ICI Trustee and Benefit Co-Chair Ann Schaffer kicked off the celebrations, and fellow ICI Trustee and Benefit Co-Chair Angel Otero welcomed the audience into his studio and revealed the limited edition he created exclusively for ICI's Benefit in a Box.
Benefit Co-Chair Gabriela Palmieri shared her Auction Highlights and entered Access Fund supporters into a special raffle of a limited edition bottle of tequila by Casa Dragones and Pedro Reyes.
Composer and musician, Laura Ortman, moved everyone with a mesmerizing violin performance delivered live from ICI's offices in lower Manhattan. Her performance prompted the Zoom version of a standing ovation from all who attended.
