Center on Contemporary Art’s (CoCA) 22nd 24-Hour Art Marathon “Live! Nudes! Artists!” launches noon on Thursday, November 13 with 24 hours of controlled chaos as 20 emerging and established artists paint, draw, wax, construct, collage, spray, write and sculpt their way to creating nearly 100 new works of art for CoCA’s popular 2014 Gala Auction Fundraiser. Everyone is welcome to come watch the artists in action.

From 6-9pm, on Thursday November 13th “Live! Nudes! Artists!” will be a part of Capitol Hill Art Walk. Join the ongoing cacophony at the Artists’ Appreciation Party—meet the artists, get a peek at the work in progress and enjoy light refreshments, a tasty beer from Elysian Brewing, a special performance by Serendip and the beats of DJ Alann Alann. Admission is free.
