Monster Drawing Rally
Now Offering 2026 Sponsorship Opportunities
The YAM is currently seeking sponsors for this one-of-a-kind community event!
What To Expect
Part live art-making performance, part art-bazaar, part live auction, the Monster Drawing Rally is a fast-paced, lively fund-raising event! Multiple rounds of 20+ artists create artworks from start-to-finish while under a 50-minute time limit and in front of a live audience. Each finished piece is then auctioned right away for a flat price of $50.
Artists participating in this lively event generously donate their time and talent in support of the museum. Guests partake in a rare and exciting opportunity to watch artists in action and a chance to take home their completed pieces. Ticket holders will also enjoy a live DJ, light snacks and a cash bar.
