Dear Glory presents

A game show night for the art world.

Lights down, music up, two teams on stage and the whole room voting on their phones. Every card is a real art-world scenario, and every reveal shows how the insiders actually play it. Every night ends with a local artist winning a cash prize for their studio. It is a night out that teaches, and the room is still arguing about it the next day.

This is a Glory Glory night.

The idea

The art world learns how the art world works, by playing it.

1

Everyone plays

Every person in the room votes on every card from their phone. No one just sits through a panel.

2

It teaches for real

Every card is a true scenario, checked for accuracy, with the move a seasoned pro would actually make.

3

A local artist wins

Each team plays for a local artist. The winning team takes home a cash prize for their studio.

How a round works

Two teams. The whole room. The insider move.

Every phone is a player

The whole room plays from their phone.

  • 1Scan the code on the big screen. No app, no download.
  • 2Add your name. Your team is set at the door or with your ticket.
  • 3Tap your move on every card, and watch the votes land on the big screen.

At GloryLand, 21 phones were in the game before the first card.

Why playing along works

Every vote teaches, right or wrong.

C You picked the insider move

It reassures you.

The reveal confirms your instinct. You leave knowing you already move like a pro.

A You picked a different move

It teaches you.

You hear professionals talk through the right answer, and why they play it that way.

A real card · Round 2 · The fair booth

What the room plays.

You're covering your gallery's art fair booth while your gallerist grabs lunch. A collector says, "I'll take it today if you can do 25% off." What's the move?

ASay yes. A sale is a sale.0
BHold the price. The price is the price.1
CSay your gallerist handles pricing, get their number, and text your gallerist right now.12
The insider move: C. At a fair, discounts belong to the gallery, and a 25% ask is steep when a courtesy discount is usually closer to 10%. Pros keep the collector warm and bring the gallerist in fast.

Every game draws fresh cards from a bank of nearly 100 scenarios across galleries, collecting, museums, careers and brands. We write a set for your audience, every time.

The night

The party keeps goingAnd everyone is still arguing about Round 5.
The final round

Double or Glory.

Before the last card, each team chooses its wager: some of its points, or all of them. Find the insider move and win 40 plus the wager. Miss it and the wager is gone. It is how a night that was tied all evening ends with one team taking Glory.

How it played at GloryLand

Tied 120 to 120. Both teams bet everything. One got it right.

Both teams wagered all 120 points on the closing card. Team A missed. Team B locked the insider move and took 40 plus the wager.

Nobody is just sitting through a talk.
Played and tested live

It already works in a room.

Glory Glory closed Education Day at Hotel Saint Augustine during Untitled Art Houston week, then ran again on Dear Glory Live on YouTube, where viewers joined a team from their phones and voted along. It has been played and tested several times, in person and on stream.
