Join us for The Art of Being Seen Sneaker Ball, an exclusive evening where art, fashion, and community come together at Gallery Defi in Dallas.

Celebrate the talented youth artists of our SEAT'd: The Art of Being Seen Youth Residency, whose one-of-a-kind chair creations will be showcased before finding their forever homes through a live auction benefiting No Limits Arts Theatre.

Your ticket includes an unforgettable evening featuring a live auction, raffles, signature style awards, hors d'oeuvres, cocktails, music, and inspiring creative experiences.

Dress Code

Artfully Dressed | Creative Formal | Expressively You

This is where formal wear meets fearless creativity. Think bold suits with personality, elegant gowns with artistic flair, tuxedo-inspired looks with a twist, and avant-garde fashion that turns heads.

Sneakers are required. Make them bold. Make them artistic. Make them unmistakably you.

No jeans. No athletic wear. No t-shirts. No shorts. No business casual. This isn't that kind of party.

Every ticket purchased helps No Limits Arts Theatre continue providing free and low-cost arts programming for Dallas youth, veterans, first responders, and the creative community.

Come to celebrate creativity. Leave knowing you've helped someone else discover theirs.
