Vote. Celebrate. Win.

The Corcoran Gallery of Art’s 1869 Society Steering Committee would like to thank all of the mixologists, venues, sponsors, artists, and guests who made ARTINI 2009 such a phenomenal success. The event raised more than $33,000 for the Corcoran College of Art + Design’s BFA Scholarship Fund.

Congratulations to Erik Holzherr of Wisdom (1432 Pennsylvania Avenue SE) for winning the ARTINI 2009 competition by creating the most artistic martini.

We look forward to hosting you all again next year at ARTINI 2010 on March 27!
