Art in Motion Concours d’Elegance

The Art in Motion Concours d’Elegance at Monticello Motor Club, October 6-8, 2017 is poised to be the collector car event of the fall. Our inaugural effort is 2016 was but a preview of things to come. We can’t thank the judges, entrants, volunteers and guests enough for making our dream of combining a concours, track event and charity auction into one spectacular weekend come true.

Art in Motion 2017 will be three full days of automotive excitement. Friday, October 6th, the second annual AIM kicks off with a luncheon in the spectacular new Monticello Motor Club Museum featuring Danny Sullivan, Wayne Carini, and Brian Redman. Bring your driving gloves and join our Road Rally at 2:00 pm. Road Rally participants and other guests will be in awe Friday evening as we introduce them to the beauty, history and architecture that is Bethel Woods. The evening concludes with a 60’s themed cocktail party, entertainment and charity dinner.

On Saturday, October 7th, we’ll introduce AIM attendees to our newest class, off road rally cars. Hugely popular in Europe, off road rallying is gaining momentum in the US. Some of the most competitive cars in the world will be on display all weekend. And take to the dirt yourself while supporting our charities; sample the MMC Off Road Experience. Gooding & Company returns to Monticello with a preview of their scaled-up charity auction for 2017. Art in Motion is synonymous with fine food and the ambiance of engines and exhaust notes. Enjoy lunch on Saturday from any one of our new track observation locations as race cars navigate the south track. Saturday’s racing banter will be led by the always entertaining Danny Sullivan and his special guests discussing the history of Formula One. The full course at Monticello Motor Club will be needed to appreciate the speed of the cars in our featured Saturday race class, Formula One. The off-road rally cars will continue their demonstration throughout the afternoon and your need for speed can be fulfilled with by registering for Hot Laps for Charity or challenging friends on the karting track. Race cars will be on display all day and don’t miss the Queally Pro Am. The day concludes with the Gooding & Company auction and fine dining as our celebrity guests present awards.

Sunday’s feature is our sports car concours. Chief Judge Russell Glace and his team of world renown experts have their work cut out for them as our show field is more exclusive than ever for 2017. Our featured marque will be announced soon and we’ll have special exhibits of cars by Bugatti and Miller. The track action continues Sunday with concours cars, modern super cars, Hot Laps for Charity and more off road adventures and demonstrations.
