Thomas Rom Boundless Sotheby's Burning Man

BOUNDLESS SPACE Raises Funds for Burning Man Art Initiative

Last Thursday night marked the opening of the BOUNDLESS SPACE charity sale supporting Burning Man Art Initiative at Sotheby’s. To mark the event art advisor, philanthropist, and co-chair of the sale host committee, Thomas Rom, opened his home to collectors, curators, artists, writers, thinkers, and leaders of the Burning Man project in celebration of this unprecedented initiative. Hosting with him were his co-chairs Yvonne Force Villareal and Fab 5 Freddy, together with Whitewall Magazine and Sake Baby. The guests were treated to a special performance of sacred music by Walid Ben Selim accompanied by harpist Lexie Lowell.
