Art All Night Returns This Weekend

Art All Night Trenton will return to the Roebling Wire Works June 15 and 16, following months of hard work by the event’s staff and volunteers, and lots of community support. Art All Night 2019 will be the same free and open-to-all event, full of art, music, food trucks, live mural painting and more, but the full event footprint will be fenced off, with many important new security measures in place to ensure the event is safe and trouble free.

Art All Night will begin at 3 p.m. Saturday, June 15, and end at 3 p.m. Sunday, June 16, but no new entries will be allowed after midnight Saturday, with the event fully closed to the public between the hours of 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. Sunday, when public entry resumes.

“We vowed to bring back Art All Night, and we did with a huge amount of support from the public, the City of Trenton, our sponsors, and funders,” said Lauren Otis, executive director of Artworks, Trenton’s visual arts nonprofit and producer of Art All Night. “We decided to close during overnight hours this year to ensure that attendees, volunteers, and our whole Art All Night family had the highest level of comfort in this, our comeback year.”

“This year at Art All Night we have an incredible lineup of live music, interactive events, films, food trucks, craft vendors, and more, to accompany the always-amazing show of hundreds of pieces of submitted art,” said Joseph Kuzemka, Art All Night event director. “Apart from new entry and security measures, attendees can expect the same wonderful Art All Night experience they’ve always known at the familiar Roebling Wire Works building.”

Art All Night takes place at the historic Roebling Wire Works, 675 South Clinton Avenue, Trenton. For more information about submitting art to Art All Night, or attending, including parking, music lineup, food vendors, security, and more, visit artallnighttrenton.org or call (609) 394-9436.
