This January, 20 talented artists will turn white attire into wearable masterpieces
January 11, 2024 (WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.) — Join the Armory Art Center for a special night of creativity at “Artistry: Get Painted Plus!” on Thursday, January 25, 2024 at 6 p.m.
Bring a white item of clothing and take home a work of art! This premier event invites community members to indulge in an art-filled night they won’t soon forget—over 20 artists will turn guests’ blank attire into unique, wearable masterpieces.

“We are thrilled to bring back the magic of Artistry this year—this time with wearable art,” said Linda Silpe, event co-chair. “This event gives guests the chance to enjoy a one-of-a-kind piece for years to come. And they can feel good about their purchase—because proceeds support the Armory Art Center’s arts programming.”
