Sorry but this one is nearly sold out. But seriously, who would be surprised that the 2024 Art For Advocacy benefiting Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center on Saturday, September 14, would be anything but a quick sell out?
With Co-Chairs Courtney Gilbert, Amy Grissen and Holly Lawrence plus Presenting Sponsor LABORA and Honor Co-Chairs Katy and Kyle Miller leading the fundraising for the night of gazing, cocktailing, dining and arm raising bidding, their goal is to hit the $1.6M mark.

According to DCAC President/CEO Irish Burch, “Art for Advocacy is a testament to the power of community coming together to shed light on the darkness of child abuse. We are immensely grateful for the continual support of our sponsors, artists, and volunteers. This event is more than just a fundraiser. It’s a beacon of hope for thousands of children who need it most in our city, and we are proud to see this event grow and surpass fundraising goals each year.”
