DESCRIPTION:Our annual spring benefit is first and foremost a showcase to celebrate our 62+ years as the premier home of arts and culture on the North Shore. It also has the added purpose of raising potentially 10% of our organization’s income for the year. And as you may already know: it is always a lot of fun and <em>the best place to be on a Friday night in Highland Park!</em>\n\nThis year’s event, <a href="https://one.bidpal.net/commonthread/welcome" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Common Thread</a>, will take place on Friday, April 29th, and is a return to our tradition of live celebrations. Along with a fashion show, passed food, cocktails, and the return of DJ Tess handling the music, it will include the opening of our cutting edge exhibit, Fiber-Fashion-Feminism, featuring fiber artists <a href="https://www.m2057.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Maria Pinto</a>, <a href="http://www.lauramorrisonart.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Laura Morrison</a>, <a href="https://ginnysykes.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ginny Sykes</a>, <a href="http://www.nirmalraja.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nirmal Raja, </a><a href="https://www.humankinetics.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Yana Schnitzler</a><strong>,</strong> <a href="https://www.katrinschnabl.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Katrin Schnabl</a><strong>, </strong><a href="http://www.marty-o.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marty Ornish,</a> <a href="https://www.nnekakai.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nneka Kai</a> and <a href="http://www.fleshmap.me/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jennifer Markowitz</a>.\n\nJoin us and celebrity guest host  <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monica_Pedersen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Monica Pedersen</a> as we honor the <a href="https://www.hpcfil.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Highland Park Community Foundation</a> for their exemplary stewardship of resources and community leadership during the COVID pandemic, and toast their remarkable 30th year anniversary of service.\n\nYour support, as a sponsor or a ticket buyer, will allow us to continue offering high-level programming in our galleries, classes, and events.\n\nPlease consider sponsoring* at any level that you are comfortable with, <a href="https://theartcenterhp.org/sponsorship/">here</a>\n<div>\n<div class="block-grid ">\n<div>\n<div class="col num12">\n<div class="col_cont">\n<div>\n<div>\n<div class="txtTinyMce-wrapper">\n\n*Sponsorship needs to be in before March 4 in order to be included in the invitation.\n\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n<div>\n<div class="block-grid ">\n<div>\n<div class="col num12">\n<div class="col_cont">\n<div>\n<div class="img-container center autowidth big" align="center"></div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>
