Art Conspiracy is street-level philanthropy with equal parts community art event and fundraiser. Every year in November, more than 150 artists converge on a warehouse-turned-art studio to create unique works of art on Art Con’s signature 18 x 18 plywood boards. These original creations are sold in fast-paced, high-energy auctions, with local bands peforming in between auctions. Every year, Art Conspiracy chooses a new beneficiary to receive the proceeds of our November event. We're proud to have raised over $450,000 for Dallas area non-profit arts organizations during our 14-year history.
