Cell Signaling Technology and ArtCorps invite you to celebrate and support Art for Social Action in the spirit of Day of the Dead!

Raising Spirits 2011, the annual ArtCorps fundraiser, marks the presentation of our first Creative Activist of the Year Award, honoring an individual who uses the arts and creativity to engage, educate and inspire.

At this gala event in a jungle-like green atrium filled with beautiful works of art and the sounds of Latin jazz, you will have the opportunity to enjoy Central American Day of the Dead activities such as kite-making, music and storytelling.

A silent auction offers the chance to win a South African safari, a sunset sail, artwork by renowned local artists, and gift certificates and tickets to enjoy culinary and creative pleasures in the area.

Admission includes traditional hors d'oeuvres and an open bar with wine, local craft beer from our sponsor Ipswich Ale and non-alcoholic beverages. Buy your tickets today - and remember to bring your friends to this special celebration of the transformative power of art!

Special thanks to Cell Signaling Technology, KPMG LLP, Carol Seitchik and Alan Feldman, and Diane Faissler for sponsoring Raising Spirits 2011.

We look forward to seeing you on November 3rd!
