The Aldrich is thrilled to share that our signature biennial benefit, Aldrich Undercover, will take place on Saturday, October 4 from 7 to 9 pm. This lively “secret” art sale—featuring work by artists who have exhibited at the Museum whose identity is only revealed after a work of art has been purchased—raises critical funds that directly support The Aldrich’s mission to serve as a leading incubator for artists at critical creative junctures, providing a collaborative platform that engages and inspires.

More than 85 artists will contribute 9 x 12-inch original artworks priced at $550 each and sold anonymously. All guests will enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres. VIP ticketholders receive special priority access to the sale for a limited time.

All proceeds benefit The Aldrich’s dynamic exhibitions and education programs. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit, the Museum depends on the generous support of friends like you.

Saturday, July 19 | 3 to 5 pm
Free

Join us for an outdoor conversation between artists Martin Beck and Elle Pérez, moderated by The Aldrich’s Associate Curator, Eduardo Andres Alfonso. Taking place in the Museum’s newly renovated Sculpture Garden—weather permitting—this talk will explore the intersection of each artist’s practice and dives into the current exhibition, Martin Beck: … for hours, days, or weeks at a time, on view until October 5, 2025.

Martin Beck is known for his research-driven installations and projects that examine the social, political, and material conditions of exhibition-making and display. Elle Pérez’s intimate photographs center on queer identity, vulnerability, and the quiet power of everyday moments, often blurring the line between portraiture and personal narrative.

Enjoy drinks and coffee by Ursa Roastery in the Sculpture Garden from 3 to 5 pm, with a cash bar and conversation that begins at 3:30 pm. The talk will include an audience Q&A—an invitation to listen, reflect, and connect.

1 to 2 pm
$5 for Senior Members; $8 Seniors (includes Museum admission)

Join us for this in-person gallery tour of highlighted works from our current exhibitions, guided by Education and Access Specialist Holly Lapine, reserved specifically for senior adults ages 60 and above!

Every second Saturday, young artists expand their knowledge of the visual arts and try their hand at varied mediums (e.g., drawing, painting, sculpture, fashion, photography). It’s a special time and space just for teen artists where they can steadily build their portfolios and embark on a collective artistic journey in a relaxed, sociable studio environment, with the guidance of a teaching artist.

Free with admission or Student AMP Pass. 

This program is made possible in part by Renee Chatelain and Kevin Lyle.
