Please join us for an evening of fun on the 4th floor rooftop on Saturday, September 12th, 2026 from 6:30-10:30pm. This event is a celebration of all that Second Street Gallery has spearheaded as a nonprofit, community-driven, contemporary artspace since 1973, and all that we envision and hope to share with you as we step into our 53rd season of exhibitions and programming.
The $53 admission to the fundraiser includes live entertainment, as well as 2 drink tickets per attendee (local wine / beer / cider) along with light bites & appetizers. After two drink tickets are used, beverages will be available to purchase for $6.
Guests will be treated to to the sounds of local musicians Koda Kerl and the Dürty Nelly's House Band from 7-9PM. Then we keep the energy going with a dance party with DJ Thomas Dean from 9-10:30PM. Our Teeny Tiny Trifecta 9 exhibition will also be open late for viewing, with hundreds of artworks available for purchase.
This is an unparalleled opportunity to mix in with local artists and fellow arts enthusiasts on one of Charlottesville's premier rooftop spaces. So come share in the experience, have a night out on the town, and help fundraise for our upcoming 53rd season!
