Art All Night Trenton 2007 was a colossal success! With over 1700 attendees and 370 pieces of art on display-representing artists of all ages, skill levels, and media-this 24-hour event was a great triumph for our community. In 2008, let's double the art and visitors.

Producing the event is a lot of fun but also requires a lot of work. If you can volunteer five hours a month, join the Art All Night Committee. Contact Michael Gumpert at gump5555@hotmail.com
