The Best Things in Life Will Come Together in a Captivating Celebration of the Arts at Queensborough’s Performing Arts Center

Published: April 17, 2017

Hear music in full color! Watch paint sing! See art in motion!

ARTRAGEOUS includes all of these wildly creative wonders in an interactive experience featuring an outstanding team of artists who sing and dance to the music of such icons as Ray Charles, John Lennon, Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra, while swiftly painting their larger-than-life portraits.  Join this fabulous fever of fun at Queensborough’s Performing Arts Center on April 23 at 3:00pm.

Following the show, audience members will be invited to participate in a moderated auction to purchase the original art created live on-stage. One hundred per cent of the auctioned artwork from the sale will be donated to the QCC Fund, Inc. to benefit QPAC.

“This all-in interactive art and music experience is a feast for the senses that will send your spirits soaring,” said Susan Agin, Executive Artistic Director of QPAC.  “This will be a wonderful and engaging afternoon for all ages!”
