Hosted by top Montclair real estate broker and team founder, Curtis J. Wright and co-founder and award-winning luxury television producer, Erica Wright, the evening was a resounding success, bringing together Christie’s International Real Estate Group executives, clients, and esteemed guests from the Montclair community and beyond.
A live jazz band set the perfect ambiance for the evening while guests were treated to a delightful array of custom cocktails, hand passed Hors d'oeuvres and an array of exciting raffle prizes. Attendees had the exclusive opportunity to immerse themselves in the latest exhibits of the museum, featuring works by internationally renowned artists.
Among the prizes was a coveted Masterclass in Photography with the renowned Joel Meyerowitz, whose captivating work graced the museum's walls. In addition, lucky winners walked away with gift cards to the acclaimed Frank Anthony's Italian Gourmet restaurant, the caterer behind the event's delectable offerings, as well as memberships to The Montclair Foundation.

The launch of The Wright Group marks a significant milestone in the Montclair real estate landscape. In March 2023, Christie's International Real Estate Group announced the formation of this dynamic team, combining Curtis J. Wright's unparalleled expertise in real estate with Erica Wright's stellar record of accomplishment in luxury television production. Together, they form a full-service real estate team hyper-focused on serving Montclair and its surrounding areas, as well as the Jersey Shore. The Wright Group was also named Top Team for Christie’s Real Estate Montclair for 2023.
Curtis is one of the top real estate brokers in New Jersey highly sought after for his expertise in both residential and commercial transactions. A founding member of Christie's International Real Estate’s Montclair Sales Gallery, Curtis is also the #1 Top-Producing Agent two years in a row (2021 & 2022), a consistent recipient of the NJ Realtors® Circle of Excellence Sales Award®, and a seasoned Luxury Broker/Investor for more than 15 years. Combining Curtis’s wealth of experience with Erica’s extensive career as a CNBC Luxury Real Estate TV Producer and On-Air Talent for over a decade has established a powerhouse sales team in the region.
The evening was not only a celebration of luxury real estate but also a testament to The Wright Group and the power of collaboration, community spirit, and dedication to excellence. As this top-producing team embarks on this exciting new chapter and continues to grow, they look forward to continuing to serve their clients with integrity, passion, and unparalleled expertise.
The event's success was made possible through the support of sponsors Unity Bank and Centurion Title Services. Their commitment to empowering local initiatives and fostering community spirit was instrumental in bringing this celebration to fruition.

"One of the reasons we chose this venue for our official launch party and client appreciation event is because our iconic Christie's brand has been appreciating art and curating luxury for over 250 years. While other real estate brands see a house, The Wright Group at Christie's Montclair sees a beautiful work of art. We wanted to share our love for the arts with our clients and friends to enjoy a wonderful night out at Montclair's fabulous, internationally recognized museum with one of our favorite photographers (Joel Meyerowitz) on display,” said Erica Wright.
"Montclair has always felt like home to us and we're thrilled to be celebrating with this amazing community! The Wright Group real estate specialists and elite marketing team are honored to be top agents representing the local affiliate for Christie's International Real Estate connecting the world of luxury, art, and real estate by providing the tailored, trusted level of service that the discerning clients of Christie's auction house have depended on for centuries. Our mission is to help as many people as possible maximize the equity in their home and set them up for success. We believe that luxury is not a price point; luxury is a level of service. Integrity is at our core, and we care about our clients, always putting their best interest first," said Curtis J. Wright.
Sonja Cullaro, Executive Vice President of Christie’s International Real Estate Group who attended the event said, “At Christie’s International Real Estate, we pride ourselves on delivering the highest level of service to our clients, with passion, expertise, and integrity.
