A Midsummer Night's Draw Live Drawing Rally & Online Silent Auction

Asbury Hall - 341 Delaware Avenue, Buffalo

Visit draw.cbo.io to bid on artwork.





Join us for the 26th live drawing rally since 2012! Watch 36 artists create original drawings in two fast-paced, 45-minute rounds. There's no theme—artists simply draw what they draw. Enjoy drinks from the cash bar and music by ABCDJ while witnessing creativity in real time. This year's event is extra special—it's also Ed Cardoni's FINAL Drawing Rally as Executive Director before his retirement after 35 years of fearless leadership at Hallwalls. Help us send him off right!

We'll have a note box at the event—please bring a memory, a thank you, or a well wish for Ed as he wraps up this incredible chapter.

As curator John Massier says:

"It’s not a competition, but artists come prepared to deliver their best. New faces and returning favorites create side-by-side, offering a true snapshot of Buffalo's incredible creative community."

Bidding registration and artist preview opens July 16.
Bidding closes Thursday, July 31 at 9pm.
