Details

This event is SOLD OUT.

Join us for the in-person opening reception of The World Chess Hall of Fame's newest exhibition, "Keith Haring: Radiant Gambit," on Thursday, November 19, 2020, from 5:00-8:00 p.m.

"Radiant Gambit" features artwork by Haring, a world-renowned pop artist known for his art that proliferated in the New York subway system during the 1980s. The exhibition includes a never-before-seen private collection of Haring’s works and photographs of the artist, bespoke street art chess sets from Purling London and newly-commissioned pieces by Saint Louis artists, all paying homage to the late pop culture icon.

In compliance with our safety guidelines, guests will be required to wear masks and sign up for a timed, 30-minute tour of all three floors, including a viewing of our current exhibition, "Power in Check: Chess and the American Presidency," led by our curators.

The reception is free and open to the public with complimentary valet and cocktails on our heated outdoor chess patio. For more information or to RSVP, please visit worldchesshof.org.

A virtual tour of the exhibitions will also be viewable on The World Chess Hall of Fame's website, YouTube and Facebook channels.
