Collectors’ Night 2025 will take place on Thursday, May 1st in downtown Washington, DC.
For 45 years, WPA’s art auction (Collectors’ Night) has been a staple of the DC art scene. Collectors’ Night is not only an opportunity to celebrate with our community, but also provides essential support for the powerful, artist-organized contemporary art programs that WPA produces right here in DC. Proceeds from the auction directly benefit the participating artists and WPA, as all sales are split 50-50.
Attendees will enjoy a fully catered Cocktail Party including drinks and hors d’oeuvres, as you immerse yourself in an installation of more than 150 artworks by some of the most exciting artists working in the region today, all available for purchase in the online auction. You will also get to learn about WPA’s 5-decade history of supporting trailblazing art in the District through a special 50th Anniversary retrospective presentation. The night will be filled with music, food, drink, and plenty of art-viewing and bidding!
The 100+ participating artists were sourced through our open call or recommended to WPA by curators, arts professionals, and other artists. The online auction will be powered by Artsy, an international arts sales platform that averages more than 2,000,000 visitors per month. The auction will be open from April 18–May 2, closing at noon on Friday, the day after Collectors’ Night.
