The A2AC is excited to welcome you back downtown for Artini 2024!
As we celebrate the Art Center’s 115th Anniversary, join us for the 15th Annual Artini, an Ann Arbor Art Center fundraiser! Once again, the finest downtown bars and restaurants in downtown Ann Arbor will create the city’s most artful cocktail. From 6:00pm to 10:00pm visit participating establishments and taste carefully crafted and innovative cocktails designed by some of the city’s top mixologists. This year, we are transitioning Artini back to an in-person-only experience.
We’ve paired these downtown restaurants with a mural or alleyway installation from the A2AC Art in Public program and the A2DC to see what magic they can make, using public art as their inspiration.
Participating Venues:
Blom Meadworks
Conor O’Neills
Babs’ Underground
Nightcap
Vinology
Alley Bar
West End Grill
If you have any questions, please contact Natalie Johnson, our Development Associate, at njohnson@annarborartcenter.org.
What’s included in your experience?
Over the last 14 years, Artini has raised well over $250,000 to ensure everyone can access the visual arts. Your event registration gets you 7 drink tickets to taste 7 cocktails from our participating venues. You’ll pick up your event tickets from the A2AC on June 21st, then you’ll have from 6:00pm to 10:00pm to make your way around downtown — tasting cocktails, grabbing dinner or apps, and enjoying your favorite downtown bars and restaurants! You’ll have the chance to crown the “People’s Choice Award” winner at the end of the night by voting for your favorite cocktail. Plus, you’ll receive a curated tasting guide.
Please Note: Non-alcoholic options are not offered at this event. Attendees may order other drinks from participating venues, including mocktails, but these beverages are not redeemable with your Artini drink tickets.
Attendees must be 21 or older by 6/21/2024. As a fundraising event for the A2AC, 50% of your ticket purchase is a tax-deductible donation. This does not include the 18% built-in gratuity fee included in your ticket cost. Tickets are non-refundable, and if you cannot attend, your ticket purchase will be transitioned to a 100% tax-deductible donation to the Ann Arbor Art Center, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. This does not include the 18% built-in gratuity fee included in your ticket cost.
We can’t wait to celebrate Artini with you!
