The PAAM Party

THE ANNUAL BENEFIT GALA + THE BAUHAUS BALL

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2019 | 5PM-12AM | 25 WINSLOW STREET

TICKETS ARE $500 OR $350, PURCHASE HERE

Please note that, unlike in other years, this year’s Gala is not on Columbus Day Weekend.

Two-thousand and nineteen is the 100th year anniversary of the Bauhaus, a German art school founded in 1919 that posited the idea to “reimagine the material world to reflect the unity of all the arts.” In Bauhaus ideology, functionality dictates form, meaning that the usage of the object is its primary design principle. Celebrating the centennial of the Bauhaus is especially poignant with the 2019 PAAM Party honorees, who use design principles like the ones invented by the Bauhaus every day.

Tickets include a cocktail reception, dinner, dessert, and admission to The Bauhaus Ball after-party with dancing and entertainment. All tickets held at the door.

THE 2019 HONOREES

Breon Dunigan is a sculptor living and working in Truro, Massachusetts. Dunigan studied at The North Carolina School of the Arts, Atlanta College of Art, The Massachusetts College of Art and holds an MFA from The Mason Gross School of Arts at Rutgers University. In her words, “Much of my recent work as focused on my perception and interpretation of our attachment to objects of all kinds. The sculptures are created using items I have collected both conceptually and literally, as well as items that have been handed down through generations of my family.” Integrating her familial items into her work bodes well for her collectors; Dunigan hails from a family that boasts four generations of beloved Provincetown artists, giving her deep-rooted connections to the Art Colony in Provincetown.

Independently trained and working exclusively by referral, Ken Fulk has spent the last 20 years developing long-lasting relationships with clients throughout the United States and abroad. Based out of a former renowned erotic-leather-goods store in San Francisco, Fulk provides his clients with irreverent style at every turn. Whether it’s creating distinguished homes, collaborating with one of fashion’s greatest, or hosting a private Stevie Nicks concert for 400 costumed Halloween dinner guests, Fulk imbues every project with effortless elegance. Fulk leads a team of architects, designers, branding and event specialists in both San Francisco and New York, and his dedication to his work is seen in his commitment to Provincetown businesses, non-profits, and artists.

Doug Dolezal moved to Boston to study architecture and urban design at Harvard University, Graduate School of Design. He has been coming to Provincetown for twenty years, where he was first introduced to PAAM in the late 1990’s.
