GotArt! Returns Feb. 21 with New Location and More Art Than Ever
February 4th, 2025
Art Showcase & Fundraiser Benefitting Lehigh Art Alliance and Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites Moves to JuxtaHub in Emmaus for 2025.
The popular GotArt! art showcase and fundraiser presented by Lehigh Art Alliance (LAA) and Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites (HBMS) continues to grow in size and scope, moving to a new location and showcasing more artwork than ever this year.
A fundraiser for LAA and HBMS, GotArt! will be the first-ever event at the new JuxtaHub, 375 S. 10th St., in Emmaus. The event will take place Feb. 21, 6-8 p.m., and showcase 90 works of art in honor of LAA’s 90th anniversary. Last year, GotArt! featured 65 pieces, with the event at the Luckenbach Mill in Bethlehem selling out in advance. Tickets for the event, which include one piece of art and admission for two people, are $150 and are on sale now at historicbethlehem.org.
“Artists have made up a large part of Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites’ support over the years, and art is an important part of Bethlehem’s history, as reflected in our museum collections, which include artwork that dates back to the early Moravians,” said HBMS Vice President and Managing Director Lindsey Jancay. “The GotArt! event is significant because not only is it a fundraiser for both of our organizations, it also shines the spotlight on our incredibly talented local artists and the vibrant arts community here in the Lehigh Valley. We greatly appreciate the support of Lehigh Art Alliance in co-presenting this event every year.”
During GotArt!, everyone who purchases a ticket to the event is guaranteed to leave with a piece of art valued at $300 or more. Artwork includes paintings, drawings, collages, ceramics and sculptures. All works of art are donated by Lehigh Art Alliance member artists and other artists throughout the Lehigh Valley.“ Lehigh Art Alliance has enriched the Lehigh Valley community by providing fine art exhibitions and educational opportunities for 90 years,” said Lehigh Art Alliance President Elena Shackleton.
“Our partnership with Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites over the years has been integral to both organizations’ commitment to promoting the visual and decorative arts. Our artists recognize the value of this partnership and generously donate their work each year for this event.”
Doors for GotArt! open at 5 p.m. on Feb. 21, with the drawing kicking off at 6 p.m. The evening will also include light bites and refreshments. A special preview of the works for all ticket holders and anyone interested in purchasing a ticket is set for Feb. 17, 5:30-7:30 p.m., at JuxtaHub.
