On Saturday, October 27, 2012, hob'art artists are inviting everyone to get into a spooky mood at a Halloween Gala Party and Silent Auction. The witching hours are from 8-11pm. Create your craziest costume ever and come on out to the hob'art Gallery, Gallery E 208, The Monroe Center for the Arts, 720 Monroe Street, Hoboken, NJ. For a $3.00 donation at the door, hob'art will provide all creepy, crawly costumed and un-costumed guests with food, wine and live music by the world renowned Jim Pellegrino Jazz Trio (known to have played with Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, the Temptations, and Jimmy Heath).

Party goers will also be able to bid in our first silent auction. The hob'art artists are donating 9X9 original artworks to be auctioned in a "Square Show" during this event. The auction proceeds will enable hob'art to continue having high quality art exhibitions, art classes, workshops, lectures, and discussion groups.

Just in time for the Halloween Party, hob'art gallery will sponsor a mask making class on October 25, starting at 6:30pm with Erik Attia to help each participant apply their creativity to the making of a Venetian-style mask. Using the age old techniques of the Italian ‘Mascherari,’ the mask makers, Attia will show you how he creates masks for the Cirque du Soleil and other famous clientele. A nominal fee of $30 includes a blank papier-mâché mask base, paints and assorted ribbons and feathers. All you need to bring is a paintbrush and your imagination! Please contact Jodi Zulueta at eldwenne@yahoo.com or 201-780-7952 to register for this class.
