We have so many answers for you.
First off, don’t miss THIS AWESOME DEAL on YouSwoop: $25 for ARTini tickets through next Monday, October 15. Do it now. They’re going VERY fast.
Just in case you were still on the fence (really? Open bar, awesome live improv & dance, wine raffle, appetizers, amazing cause? Really?) – we got some of our favorite people to tell you why ARTini is every bit as cool as we claim:
As board chair of New Arts Forum, I can say that tickets to ARTini practically sell themselves. Tell me one young professional who wouldn’t love top notch DJs, interactive improv and live dance (performed in the fabulous atmosphere of Lumen Lounge), an open bar with Goose Island and Svedka, AND all proceeds going to support arts education for Chicago’s underserved youth.
– Jess Kaswiner, New Arts Forum (Junior Board – ARTini hosts)
Anyone attending ARTini expecting a typical cocktail hour is in for a real surprise. The one-of-a-kind art at silent auction, spot performances by vibrant local musicians and interaction with a truly dynamic group of young people dedicated to the enrichment of Chicago’s art community all make ARTini an unforgettable night out.

Having performed at the past two ARTinis, I can honestly say they are a blast! There are lots of energetic people supporting the arts, great auction items available, and plenty of room for mingling and dancing. I definitely recommend it as a wonderful, fun-filled way to support Urban Gateways!

ARTini is a perfect vehicle for ART, socializing and community involvement. I attended the last couple of years and I’m looking forward to this year’s festivities at Lumen!!
– Sean Patrick Finn, New Arts Forum
My friends, coworkers, and fellow NAF members are all so excited for ARTini again this year! Besides being a great party, ARTini brings us all together for a great cause, and I love that. Everyone gets to meet one another and feel good about supporting arts in schools. Plus, we get to enjoy fun entertainment and take home awesome auction items and raffle prizes. Overall, it’s a really good time!
