UP WITH ART 2014
Up With Art is an annual event to raise money for The Unity Project, an organization that provides emergency shelter, transitional housing and supports self-help for people who are struggling to escape and avoid homelessness. Artists and collectors of art donate pieces to be auctioned off, where the proceeds are used to support The Unity Project and related initiatives such as the Life Skills Program, which provides one-to-one and structured support in the areas of Health, Home, System and Employment. It came as a surprise when one of the committee members approached me to document the event, and it was an honor working with and meeting all the great people involved with the evening.
