Returning to the island for its second edition, Art Initiatives brings its annual Art Auction & Lunch to the elegant surrounds of Roca House on Saturday October 04, 2025. Founded by Ibiza-raised curator and arts advocate Johanna Driest with collaborator Zuzana Kopecká, the non-profit organisation is rooted in the belief that art can act as both cultural enrichment and social transformation. Their debut last year established a new tradition for the island, uniting contemporary art, community and purpose all beneath one roof.
This year’s program explores the theme of collective and individual memory through a curated exhibition of international artists, accompanied by soulful live jazz from Moon Yet and a three-course lunch. The afternoon culminates in a charity auction, with proceeds supporting Anno’s One Fine Day Arts Centre in Kenya – providing creative education for young people in Kibera – alongside Asociación Asperger Ibiza y Formentera here on the island. A day of art, conversation and community, held in one of Ibiza’s most inspiring spaces. Tickets cost 135€ per person and include aperitivos and lunch.
