I believe in giving back, especially to the industry that inspires my work. That’s why I’m auctioning off a custom one-of-a-kind drawing, with all proceeds benefiting the NYC Hospitality Alliance’s Impact Foundation.
This is a unique chance to own a piece of restaurant art while contributing to a great cause. If you love NYC’s dining scene and want to support the people behind it, this is the perfect opportunity. Place your bid and make a difference!
Restaurants are more than just places to eat—they’re where memories are made. Now, I’m giving you a chance to take one home from our collection of more than 1,000 drawings!
How to Enter:

I’m John Donohue, an artist, author, and former editor at The New Yorker, and I’ve spent years capturing the heart and soul of dining through my hand-drawn restaurant prints.
Since 2017, I’ve been sketching beloved restaurants across New York City and beyond, preserving the places that bring people together—whether it’s a corner bistro, a neighborhood favorite, or a Michelin-starred icon. My work is all about celebrating the stories behind these spaces, and I’m thrilled to share it at the NY Restaurant Show at the Javits Center, NYC.
This year, I'm excited to be offering a chance to win a hand-drawn print, or bid on a custom commission that will support the NYC Hospitality Alliance’s Impact Foundation. Whether you’re a restaurant owner, a hospitality professional, or someone who simply loves a good meal, I’d love to meet you!
