CULTUREHAUS HOSTS “ART OF SCULPTURE”

Subscribe in a reader

CultureHaus, a social and educational support group of the Denver Art Museum connecting the young at heart with art, will host the Art of Sculpture on Saturday, February 7, from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at RedLine (2350 Arapahoe St., Denver).

“We’re excited to host this year’s Banner event, Art of Sculpture, at RedLine, an urban laboratory of contemporary art,” remarked CultureHaus Board Co-Chair Kasia Iwaniczko. “Attendees will step into a three-dimensional environment that features sculpture in its many forms.”

Each year, CultureHaus holds a “Banner” event, which is the organization’s signature party and fundraiser. The name of the Banner events is chosen by combining the phrase “Art of” with a noun. In 2008, CultureHaus held the “Art of Passion.”

Artist Theresa Ferg Brownback will be demonstrating the Italian style of portraiture using a live model. Guests can also partake in interactive sculpting sessions.

Denver chef extraordinaire, Daniel Young, will be orchestrating food sculptures for the event. “Chef D,” as many know him, is the personal chef for Denver Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony and is being considered to fill the position as the White House Chef under president-elect Obama.

Attendees also will enjoy live and silent auctions, a DJ, an ice luge with specialty drinks, and a VIP lounge for new members.

Tickets for CultureHaus members are $35, and non-members are $45. To purchase tickets and RSVP, visit www.culturehaus.com.
