Additional Information

Famous polymaths, more commonly known as Renaissance men, include Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Copernicus and Francis Bacon. These guys were kind of like the know-it-all in class that always made everyone else look bad because they were the best at everything. Though you may not be quite up to their standards, pretend like you've got more between ears than just the lyrics to "The Song That Never Ends" with an evening of high class and culture at Riverfront Times’ Artopia. Be there on August 23 for less with today's deal of a general admission ticket, a $30 value, for just $15.  

Now in its fifth year, Artopia is St. Louis’ most upscale, diverse party dedicated to the arts. Guests will experience creative, thought-provoking works of art in a myriad of forms—including visual, performing, multimedia and even a fashion show. With today’s deal, general admission guests will receive two full-sized complimentary sponsored drinks, dessert bites and a sneak peek behind the emerging art scenes in St. Louis. Live local bands and DJs will provide a soundtrack to the partying and food trucks like Cha Cha Chow, Sausage Syndicate, Go Gyro Go, 2 Girls 4 Wheels, Feed Me Food Truck and Zia’s will be on hand peddling their delicious eats. The event will culminate with the crowning of Artopia’s 2012 MasterMind winners—the four local artists who made major contributions to the local art scene in the past year—and presentation of a $1,000 cash prize for each.
