We need your help!

Over the past 12 years, Open Source has connected our community to artists from all over the world, shared stories and encouraged children’s creativity with KoKo NYC. Whether we’ve discussed art with you over coffee during a Sunday morning cHURCH or over a drink at an opening reception, we have enjoyed sharing our work with you.

Each year, our annual fundraiser has a larger impact on programming than the last. Generous donations by local and international artists will be available during the silent auction. All proceeds support free and low-cost public programming at Open Source. Join us in celebrating and helping keep Open Source growing in 2020!

Special guests at the 2019 Open Source Fundraiser will include curator Rachel Raphaela Gugelberger and playwrights Scott Adkins and Erin Courtney. Food, drinks and a Silent Auction including works by Duke Riley, Camilo Godoy, Monica Jahan Bose and many more! Get a sneak peak at the auction artworks (http://open-source-gallery.org/auction-2019/).

Proceeds from the artwork sold at this event support Open Source Gallery’s free Community Programs, contemporary art exhibitions, and its outstanding arts education that brings programming to vulnerable children throughout New York City.
