The Armory Art Center is turning up the creative energy on Friday, February 6, 2026, from 6 to 9:30 p.m., as the Art Throwdown “fun-raiser” takes over 811 Park Place in West Palm Beach.
This high-spirited, “Iron Chef”-style art competition brings together four artists, each challenged to create a standout piece of artwork in just 90 minutes. Their tools? A shared supply table and a mysterious “mystery box” filled with unexpected materials designed to spark improvisation and innovation. The result is part performance, part art-making, and entirely unpredictable.
Guests are invited to wander the space, watch each artist’s process unfold, and enjoy the excitement of seeing creative decisions happen right on the spot. Before the night ends, the audience becomes the jury—voting for the winner by applause. Artwork will also be available for purchase throughout the event, giving attendees the chance to take home pieces born from the adrenaline of the competition.
Tickets are $250 per person, with proceeds supporting the Armory Art Center’s programs and mission.
