Join the Visual Arts Center of New Jersey for a fall road trip to New York City and a special behind-the-scenes visit to The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts (EFA)!

On Tuesday, September 29, we’ll spend the day exploring EFA’s current exhibition and visiting artists in their studios for an inside look at their work and creative practices. This will be a wonderful opportunity to experience contemporary art up close, meet working artists, and enjoy a day of art and conversation with fellow members of the VACNJ community.

We’ll meet at the Summit Train Station and take the 9:46 AM train together, arriving at EFA by 11 AM. Our visit will run from 11 AM–3 PM and includes a catered lunch of salads and sandwiches, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available.
