Unite With Art Event at OBAKKI in Gastown

Obakki graciously hosted the pre-party last night for the Unite with Art Gala Event being held at Storyeum on June 3rd 2009. Last night was a meet and greet the artist as well as a look at there art. The art itself is breathtaking to say the least. Click here to view the Live Auction Art and the Silent Auction Art.

The wonderfully big hearted Julie Lee and Paris Forrer have been the organizers of this event since 2008. At the Rocky Mountaineer Station last year they raised over $250,000 for AIDS awareness in Africa. Specifically for the cause and effect of mothers passing AIDS on to their children and leaving them orphaned. Dozens of artists from around the lower Mainland have donated there art and time to this cause. 

We hope to see you there.
