works of heart art auction against aids | saturday october 11

Published Oct. 6, 2008

The charitable special event season is among us, and once again my family will be supporting THE preeminent art auction against AIDS, Works of Heart. I can't wait to see these spectacular pieces ...

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 11

  • Free Public Preview | 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
  • Silent Auction | 6:00 p.m. – 7:45 p.m.
  • Live Auction | 8:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.

AJ Fletcher Opera Theater | 919-831-6011

Last year's event was a great success, so I have every expectation that this weekend's preview party and auction will not only be lots of fun, but that it will raise much needed funding for the Alliance of AIDS Services - Carolina. There are over 31,000 North Carolinians living with HIV disease—over 1,000 of those individuals are living here in the Triangle. Political years are always challenging for non-profits that are dependent on financial support from the community—and a presidential year is doubly-difficult—so when you’re breaking out your checkbook, with benevolence filling your heart and a yearning to share your financial support … remember that you can get on the phone and discuss with your friends who to vote for and why, but the Alliance of AIDS Services – Carolina is totally dependent on the generosity of the community.

Tickets are on sale now; don't miss it!

Each fall, The Alliance of AIDS Services-Carolina brings together the talents and generosity of the region's art community, leading corporate citizens, hundreds of individual supporters, volunteers, and an enthusiastic audience of buyers to produce Works of Heart - The Triangle's Art Auction Against AIDS. Benefitting the Alliance of AIDS Services-Carolina in its mission to serve those affected by HIV across the Triangle, Works of Heart is noted as the region's premiere charity art auction and features over 200 original contributions by the region's most noted artists and galleries.

Right on, rah-rah!

This is a great organization and one where I personally have volunteered my time. The Alliance not only helps those who have HIV/AIDS but their care givers also. Housing support, medical support and emotional support....what a great feeling.

it sounds like alot of fun and a great cause.

sorry but I got the autism walk that day
