Mixology @ Curator's Office

Curator's Office is hosting a benefit show for Doctors Without Borders. Among the artists being shown is Cory Oberndorfer('08).

Mixology I: Paintings and Works on Paper
July 12 - July 19

Mix it Up with us: Saturday, July 12, 6:00 - 8:30
with wine, beer, and some crazy artist-designed drinks

And during the week: Tues - Sat, 12 - 6

Curator's Office is covering the gallery walls with paintings, drawings, and prints to help out Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontieres. Our goal is to raise at least $ 5,500, which could pay for an emergency health kit to care for 10,000 displaced people for three months. Together, we and art can make an important difference.

We are aware of the extreme and constant need in the world with crises affecting different parts of the globe on a weekly basis. One stellar charity, Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971. Today, MSF provides aid in nearly 60 countries to people whose survival is threatened by violence, negligence, or catastrophe, primarily due to armed conflict, epidemics, malnutrition, exclusion from health care, or natural disasters. MSF provides independent, impartial assistance to those most in need. MSF reserves the right to speak out to bring attention to neglected crises, to challenge inadequacies or abuse of the aid system, and to advocate for improved medical treatments and protocols. In 1999, MSF received the Nobel Peace Prize. For further information or to donate directly, go to www.doctorswithoutborders.org.
