Party like it’s 2016!
The 2016 Armory Party
The Museum of Modern Art will host The Armory Party, a benefit event with live music and DJs celebrating the opening of The Armory Show and Armory Arts Week, on Wednesday, March 2, 2016. The Armory Show is New York’s leading international fair for modern and contemporary art, showcasing the most important artworks of the 20th and 21st centuries. The evening reception, along with the daytime Early Access Preview at Piers 92 and 94, benefits exhibition programming for MoMA.
The 2016 Armory Party runs from 9:00 p.m. to midnight, and features access to MoMA’s Marcel Broodthaers: A Retrospective exhibition. A VIP Hour will also be held from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. and includes access to Jackson Pollock: A Collection Survey, 1934–1954, as well as The Armory Party at 9:00 p.m. For tickets go to The Armory Show 2016.
Musicians, DJs, and go-to producers known for mesmerizing funk and neo-disco, Holy Ghost! (aka the NYC-based duo of Alex Frankel and Nicholas Millhiser) have released two critically acclaimed albums, 2011’s self-titled début and 2013’s Dynamics, on DFA Records. A remix album, 2015’s self-released Work For Hire also generated wide praise.
