(ART)WARENESS 2015

Hope For The Day’s (ART)WARENESS returns to Salvage One on Thursday Oct. 15. The third annual fall art show features more than 50 works with an emphasis on Chicago artists. 100% of proceeds will go to HFTD’s youth programs for suicide prevention and mental health.

HFTD focuses on suicide prevention and mental health education through self-expression platforms to achieve outreach, education, and prevention. In America, suicide claims nearly 40,000 lives a year and is the second leading cause death among youth (CDC).

(ART)WARENESS is a celebration of life, self-expression, and community. Works in a diverse range of mediums will be raffled off, including pieces by local Chicago artists Rachel Lechocki (Curator)
