The Lyme Art Association (LAA) is delighted to announce its annual Spring Soiree, to be held on Saturday, May 16, 2026, at its historic gallery at 90 Lyme Street in Old Lyme.
A highlight of the spring season, the Spring Soiree brings together artists, collectors, and friends of the arts for an elegant and festive evening in support of one of the nation’s oldest arts organizations. Guests will enjoy live jazz by the Steve Donovan Trio, exceptional cuisine by Gourmet Galley, and lively conversation within LAA’s landmark 1921 gallery building.
The evening’s silent auction will feature Spring Forays, a luminous still life by acclaimed LAA artist Kelli Folsom. Folsom, a frequent award-winner at the Lyme Art Association, is known for her expressive brushwork and vibrant use of color, capturing the freshness and vitality of the natural world.
A highlight of the evening will be the Spring Soiree Experience Raffle, featuring a selection of curated, art-inspired getaway packages. Destinations include the Berkshires, the Hudson Valley, New York City, coastal Rhode Island, and the Connecticut shoreline, with offerings that include museum access, cultural experiences, and stays at distinctive properties such as The Porches Inn, The Wick Hotel, Moxy Lower East Side, and 41° North. Raffle tickets will be available for $20 each.
Event tickets are $85 per person.
Proceeds from the Spring Soiree directly support LAA’s exhibitions, educational programming, and stewardship of its historic gallery. Founded more than a century ago as part of the Old Lyme Art Colony, the Lyme Art Association remains a vibrant cultural destination and a champion of representational art in Connecticut and beyond.
