Art Growing Wild
We Love nothing more than to give back, and the 2010 American Heart Association Heart Ball was perfect for us. This event is put on in cities across the nation annually to raise local dollars for heart and vascular research and education.
One thing Charleston is not short on is amazing artists, and to see so many amazing pieces auctioned for the cause was invigorating! Rare finds of specialty wines and jewels were also placed on the block for this incredible organization.
Couldn’t make the evening, check out the memories captured by our dear friends at Hyer Images.
Many of our industry friends lent their support in the form of volunteer time and original centerpieces to show their interpretations of our awesome theme (if we do say so ourselves, lol) “Art Growing Wild.”
Thanks to such an amazing outpouring of support, the 2010 Heart Ball raised six figures over last year, and we had so much fun we are already looking forward to 2011!
As I mentioned, a lot of amazing vendors gave time to this wonderful cause, so here goes:
Thanks to Other Brother Entertainment and Technical Event Company.
