Virtual Event
Join us this year for Art Alive—online for the second time! The Albright-Knox's annual contest normally takes place outside, but, inspired by last year’s awe-inspiring 300 entries, we’re bringing it back to the Internet. Participants create living representations of famous works of art and compete for more than $1,000 in cash prizes. Anyone can participate, including students, community groups, organizations, households, and individuals. Participants build their stunning replicas—often called tableaux—using people, props, and their creativity.
