Fundraiser Opening Night for HCB2 – Dazzling Denim! Yesterday’s Jeans, Today’s Art, Tomorrow’s Cure Bring out the gang—this is one serious fundraiser with the accent on “fun!” “Dazzling Denim!” is a FREE art event, fundraiser and celebration. On Friday evening, May 16, original art from over 250 artists will be surrounded by live music, food, beer and wine in Crossroads Art Center’s 25,000 square-foot arts facility. The benefit also features a silent auction of unique, surprising and whimsical pieces created from denim jeans. Why denim jeans? They’re meant to symbolize both jeans and genes, to raise awareness that family genes can pass colon cancer from generation to generation. Knowing your family medical history is a major component of colorectal cancer awareness. “Dazzling Denim!” is a fundraiser for Hitting Cancer Below the Belt (HBC2), a nonprofit dedicated to the prevention of colorectal cancer. Proceeds from the sale of the denim jean art will benefit local prevention education, screenings, and research. For more information about Hitting Cancer Below the Belt or to make a donation, please visit HCB2.org. Silent Auction Opening Night to Raise Funds for HCB2 Flynn Geissel will be hosting a silent auction with her Exhibition Title: Flowers and Waterfalls. A percentage of the auction sales will go to HCB2. Come by Opening Night to bid on the pieces. A full list of the art to be auctioned will be listed the week of the auction – so stay tuned.
