Dallas Challenge gears up for Art From the Heart celebrity auction
Dallas Challenge supporters filled Jones Walker Home to kick off Art From the Heart Celebrity Art Auction and Benefit. Attendees got a sneak peek at the art and first dibs on the bidding.
Co-chairs LeeAnne Locken and Lindsay Lee McCain chatted with guests — including Elizabeth Anyaa, Britt Harless, Janet Fresquez, Shane Walker, Hamilton Sneed, Charles Smith II, Dan Pritchett and Tiffany Hendra — about the upcoming gala, which will showcase works created by celebrities, professionals and youth.
Those signed up to participate include Josh Hamilton, Mark Cuban, Lisa Loeb, Abi Ferrin and Duck Dynasty's Willie Robertson. The fundraiser is set for April 25 at Seven for Parties in the Dallas Design District, and tickets can be purchased online. Expect the requisite food and drinks and tunes spun by DJ Danny Salinas.
Since 1984, Dallas Challenge has been a leading provider of programs to help youth stay in school, off drugs and alcohol, and out of the criminal justice system.
