Art Cares..Do You?

Cleveland, Ohio The AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland (ATGC), an organization formed 21 years ago to address the growing crisis of AIDS, will be hosting the second annual ArtCares benefit on Sunday, April 25 at 6 p.m. at the Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland (MOCA), 8501 Carnegie Avenue in Cleveland.

Born out of the awareness of the devastating impact the AIDS epidemic has had on the world of art, and out of an awareness that artists can contribute to the fight against HIV/AIDS, ArtCares spotlights the work of hundreds of artists affiliated with the Cleveland Institute of Art. Attendees will have the opportunity to bid on original works in a variety of styles and media by CIA students, staff and alumni while mingling with the artists and enjoying wine and savories in MOCA Commons. All proceeds from ArtCares sales directly benefit services and programs of the ATGC.

John Demsey, CEO of MAC Cosmetics and raised in Cleveland, will serve as Honorary Chair and a major sponsor for ArtCares, with Toby Devan Lewis serving as chair, Howard Lake and Tony Bowden acting as event co-chairs. Additional support is provided by Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, the Plain Dealer, and Cleveland Scene.

Tax-deductible tickets for ArtCares are $35 per person, which includes parking, wine and hearty savories, ice cream bar provided by Ben & Jerry's. Including a live auction with work donated by national artists affiliated with CIA and a silent auction with work donated from over 100 CIA students, faculty and alumni. For further information or to purchase tickets call Judy Price at 216-357-2223, or jprice@atgc.org.

The AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland's mission is to provide a compassionate and collaborative response to the needs of people infected and affected by, and at risk for, HIV/AIDS. Through prevention, education, support services and advocacy, they reach 40,000 Northeast Ohioans every year.
