Food, entertainment, music, LIVE auction

 

Benefitting Beads of Courage, the Bead Inspired Art from the Heart Reception and fundraiser features food, live music, entertainment and a dynamic live auction featuring one-of-a-kind art items.  The evening is dedicated to honoring the children who receive Beads of Courage Programs, contributing bead artists, and supporting clinicians. 

 

Bead Inspired is the signature fundraising event for Beads of Courage, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for children coping with cancer and other serious illness through its innovative arts-in-medicine programs.  The treatment journey for a child with a life threatening illness is very challenging involving many painful and uncomfortable procedures.  Through all Beads of Courage Programs, children receive handmade beads, donated by artists, as symbols of honor and acknowledgement of their treatment milestones. These beads help them record, tell and own their stories of survival.  The Beads of Courage Program serves over 60 children's hospitals nationwide, including Phoenix Children's Hospital and Cardon Children's Medical Center.

 

Also, join us for the Bead Inspired FREE community event on the Shadow Walk just preceding this event.
