Every work of sculpture tells a different story and every viewer discovers something unique.

As part of the Art for a Cause sale, a feature of The Night Before art party and fundraiser, local Cleveland voices selected artworks that caught their eye and shared what makes those pieces resonate with them.

Cleveland chef and restaurateur Doug Katz shares what inspires him about this cast paper relief by Patricia Brett and how his appreciation for art translates into his own artistic approach to creating, plating, and presenting food.

Find out which artwork will speak to you at the sale during The Night Before art party, where every purchase supports both the participating artists and The Sculpture Center.

🎟️ Tickets to the party are on sale now. Get yours now while the early-bird discount lasts!

This event is proudly presented with the generous support of our Primary Sponsor, the Contemporary Art Society.

Join Malena Grigoli for an evening inspired by the menu of Genesis 1:29, the beloved 1970s vegetarian restaurant once housed in the building now occupied by The Sculpture Center. Guests will share w**e, soup, and bread made from ambient yeast while reflecting on the layers of labor, care, and daily life embedded within the space over time.
