Agrace Butterfly Gala: 15th Annual Celebration
How do projects like this make a difference?
In two ways: First, the process of making
gives artists release and the opportunity
to let their voices be heard through their
visual creations; secondly, the audience responds in ways that complete the artworks
with their interpretations based in their
own life experiences. Both experiences
require active participation and offer the
opportunity for growth.
What's next for the "Exquisite Uterus
Project?"
We want it to continue to grow and evolve,
to help women find their voices, express
their deep connection to the issues surrounding their bodies both personal and
public. Women who did not participate,
who see the show, tell us every time they
want to make their own exquisite uterus.
We don't want to stop them!
Join us for an unforgettable evening of gourmet dining and dancing at Agrace's 15th Annual
Butterfly Gala on Oct. 26 at Nakoma Golf Club. Guests will enjoy exquisite food, one-of-a-kind
auction items and music from The Eddie Butts Band that will have everyone dancing the
night away.
All proceeds benefit the patients and families served
by Agrace's hospice and palliative care programs.
Visit agrace.org or call Agrace at (608) 327-7239 for more
information, or to reserve your seat by Oct. 11, 2013.
