WAGMAG is pleased to present its Fifth annual benefit to support its mission to promote the arts in Brooklyn. WAGMAG, a Brooklyn Art Guide is a 501c nonprofit, and the only Brooklyn art guide that chronicles the art activities of galleries and art events in Brooklyn, non-fee based on a monthly basis. WAGMAG lists galleries free of charge so it can be all inclusive and show the fullest vision of what the galleries in Brooklyn are doing. Our annual benefit is crucial to the survival of WAGMAG, and a great way to see the varied nature of art that is being created and represented in Brooklyn.

All galleries included in WAGMAG are have been invited to participate in this exhibition, as well as some prominent artists from the area. The resulting exhibition will not only generate much needed funding for WAGMAG but also reflect the spirit and personality of the Brooklyn art community.

This is a great event for art lovers in the area, with approximately 100 pieces of artwork generously donated by local galleries and artists for the raffle during the event evening, Saturday March 13, 2010 from 6-8pm.
