Annual Fundraising Dinner & Auction
Art & Creativity for Healing holds an annual Palette of Colors Fundraising Dinner & Auction, our largest fundraiser of the year. Every year we have a silent and live auction, great food, music, and other special giveaways, all in the name of charity.
One hundred percent of the proceeds from the event benefit Art4Healing® classes and workshops. Our mission, supporting emotional healing through art & creative expression for those living in pain, fear, grief or stress depends on your support!

Will you help?
Help support our mission – to support emotional healing through art and creative expression for those living in pain, grief, fear or stress.
Your company would be giving us more than just a dollar amount – you would be giving pain a voice.
Since 2000, we have served over 90,000 children and adults by providing free Art4Healing® workshops to over 40 partner agencies. Our goal for 2022 is to expand our core community programs and reach even more participants.
Sponsor Art & Creativity for Healing
Become a Corporate Sponsor
We wouldn’t be here without the support of our Corporate Sponsors.
Why should YOU sponsor Art & Creativity for Healing?
- We’re a smaller non-profit, but we do big things!
We partner with over 35 other non-profit agencies. Our Workshops target a variety of key groups, such as: the homeless, at-risk teens, seniors, the military and victims of domestic violence. Your corporate dollars can help us reach deep into the heart of these communities to do big things. - We have a unique mission
Aligning with a one-of-a-kind mission gives your company an edge. You will be different because we are different. The Art4Healing® method is the only one of its kind in the world. You would truly be part of something special. - We prioritize YOU in our publicity and social messaging
We highlight our Sponsors on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and our website. We also feature Sponsors and Partners in our monthly newsletter with over 3,500 subscribers. Lastly, there’s the event itself, which draws 250 attendees. - We’ll get to know you personally
Come to our studio for a tour or consider letting us host a team-building workshop. - We’ll help you expand your organization’s “halo”
The “halo effect” becomes the “healing effect!” As a top sponsor, you would be gifting therapeutic workshops to children, families, veterans, and domestic violence victims living in pain, grief, fear or stress.
