Friday, October 17 | 6:00 - 10:00 PM
Venue West, 221 N. Paulina, Chicago, IL

Join us this October for our 15th annual Art for Health Benefit, an art-infused fundraising event that celebrates our accomplishments while supporting our future goals. Reflection invites us to pause and consider the journey of the past, present and future. What started as a creative act of compassion has grown into a movement - mobilizing artists, medical volunteers, staff and community leaders to create pathways for clean water, medical supplies and life-saving support across countries.

Art for Health is more than a benefit - it’s a tribute. A look back on the people who built Community Empowerment, the lives it has touched and the path ahead. From creating sustainable medical clinics in communities like Peralta and Villa Verde, to robust surgical programs yielding life-changing results to new Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation programming, the last 15 years have been a testament to drive and passion. Lit by creativity, connection and a shared purpose, our work endures.

This year, we raise our glass to the last 15 years while looking forward to the next. Enjoy drinks, small plates, live screen printing, raffle prizes and more. The money raised at Art for Health is crucial for planning the year to come, allowing for the maintenance of our current programs and implementation of our goals. With two new partner communities in development, your support has never been more impactful.
