Lucky Number 7: BICA's 2026 Gala
Saturday, October 17, 2026 · 7–11 PM BICA, 30D Essex Street, Buffalo, NY
BICA turns seven this year, and we're marking it with a night of games of chance. Lucky Number 7 brings artist-led casino-style games and activations, music and ambiance by Groupwork, a silent auction, food, and drinks to BICA for our biggest fundraiser of the year.
Doors open to all ticket holders at 8 PM. Guests with VIP Hour tickets get in at 7 PM for early access and an open bar before the room fills up. Once inside, BICA Bucks work as in-event currency — bring cash or a card to load up and use them at the tables, the bar, and around the room.
General Admission tickets start at $27 for early-bird buyers! VIP Hour tickets are $100 and include the 7–8 PM early access, paired food, and open bar.
Every ticket supports BICA's year-round work: exhibitions, a free school for artists, Cornelia magazine, and direct funding for artists building work in Buffalo. This is the one night that funds all the others.
