Artsbridge staffers, board members and supporters gathered Saturday at the Center on Market for Keys and Community -- a dueling pianos event that served both as a fundraiser and celebration of the organization’s 40th anniversary. Performers Nick and Tyson of New York, NY Dueling Pianos took requests and tips (which they then donated to Artsbridge) during an event that featured a look back at Artsbridge’s 1986 beginnings, a silent auction, 50/50 raffle, dinner -- and an impromptu recreation of the group’s 2025 winning entry into the Lip Sync Battle to celebrate board member Joe Oliverio’s birthday.
