The Tephra ICA Board of Directors invites you to Alloy!, a vibrant evening in celebration of contemporary art and connection, plus karaoke!
Thursday, October 29 | 6:00–9:00pm | Tickets $150
Signature Reston Town Center | 11850 Freedom Dr, Reston, VA 20190
The 2026 Alloy! Celebration and Cocktail Party, Tephra ICA’s annual benefit, honors former board chair Robert Goudie and his twelve years of leadership. Proceeds support Tephra ICA’s year-round exhibitions program—and help keep the gallery free and accessible to all.
The evening is also the culmination of our six-week $50,000 match campaign, launched in Robert’s honor by a Friend of Tephra ICA. The night will include a paddle raise to help us reach (or exceed) the match goal.
Expect an evening of:
- Creative conversation and a toast to Robert Goudie hosted by MC Charles Kapur
- Heavy hors d'oeuvres from Corsica Wine Bar at Reston Town Center
- Open bar, featuring a Prosecco craft cocktail created in Robert's honor
- Live DJ, and a crowd of community supporters, artists, and art lovers
- Come celebrate Robert's legacy — and the future of contemporary art in Reston and beyond!
Alloy! After Party I 9:00-11:00pm | $25
New this year: stick around after the main event by heading over to Capital Burger for the Alloy! Afterparty, hosted by board member Wanda Raimundi-Ortiz, who’ll bring her karaoke persona “Mistress Wanda” to keep the night going.
Can’t make it? You can still be a part of the celebration by making a gift for the match by October 29 or consider sponsoring the event.
