Attendees jumped into a 1980s NYC vibe at the Hunter Museum of American Art‘s annual Spectrum fundraiser. Inspired by the Hunter’s graffiti art exhibit, this event blended downtown street-art swagger with its traditional upscale elegance. Guests admired vibrant pieces, bid on auction items, enjoyed a formal dinner and danced to DJ-fueled beats — all supporting the museum’s mission to inspire, educate and connect the community through preserving and celebrating American art.
