How it works

6:00 PM – Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in the aquarium while you check out the amazing pieces created by artists across the country and make note of your favorites. Watch artists create masterpieces live and spend some time limbering up for the mad dash later in the evening!

7:00 PM – Channel your inner artist during dinner among the animals. Confer with your guest to determine which one of you is going to dash to claim your piece of art.

8:00 PM – Dine and dash! Listen up as Ken Ramirez begins pulling guests’ names at random out of a fishbowl. Once your name is called, your one designated runner will push back their chair and race to Ken to receive your tag – then hurry to the piece you’ve been eyeing and use the tag to claim it. If your favorite has already been claimed by someone else, hustle to another, but don’t dawdle because names will be called every 10 seconds. It’s a sprint, not a marathon!

Don’t worry; every pair will go home with a new prized possession to add to their collection.
