[re]create art show


I'm very excited about the next show coming up. March 19th at Trinity Tattoo in Virginia Beach we will be collaborating on a great event. Charity, tattoos, music, food, art fusion, all to help a great cause with the help of aidNOW. Did you know there are over 500 homeless kids in Virginia Beach? That number just astounded me when I first heard about the charity, Jewel's Closet, where local events help collect jeans and other trendy clothes to donate to homeless kids so they feel more comfortable walking the halls of their school. We all know how cruel kids can be, and as a result most kids would go without a jacket than wear the lame, but maybe the only one they could afford jacket from the local thrift store. I never thought about being homeless from the perspective of a kid or a young adult, but I'm glad someone did.
Get a VIP ticket for $25, which includes an exclusive preview of the art available to purchase an hour before the main crowd gets there, plus food and drinks. Or get a general admission ticket for only $5 which starts an hour later, just in time for the live art fusion on the main stage! All of the proceeds go to aidnow, as well as 25% of the featured "set price art" sale, where each piece is set at $150. The live art fusion will result in 6 "on the spot" masterpieces auctioned off for the charity as well. I have never been to an event like this and I can't wait!!
