Bryn Oh's "Music And Art Event For ALS"

Many of us remember the "Ice Bucket Challenge" for ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis aka Lou Gehrig's Disease) a year and a half ago. Achieving pop-culture status, it raised a lot of money, including here in Second Life. Today, the quest for funds for research continues. Recently Bryn Oh teamed up with an Italian ALS fundraising group, contributing an artistic exhibit for an art auction, with the proceeds going to charity.

Bryn Oh's "Music And Art Event For ALS" Today

Bryn Oh is offering one of her artwork creations up for auction to raise money for a charity for ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis aka Lou Gehrig's Disease). She explained the details in her blog, giving a personal account of her father's mobility gradually taken by the disease, "like this bird.  Flying, making song and forever on the move until suddenly a string catches its foot.  It gets more and more trapped until eventually all is taken from it."

"The work is simply called "To Dad, Love Bryn" and all proceeds from its auction go to  AISLA Onlus.  If you wish to donate, listen to music or bid on this work then here is the slurl.  The event begins tomorrow at 2pm SLT with Lisa Brune performing and will have various musicians and DJs until February 28th when the auction and event closes.  There are three other wonderful artists involved with original artwork you can bid on as well, Mistero Hifeng, Solkide Auer and Kicca Igaly."

The event, at 2PM, takes place at: Sandstorm (133/141/3906) .
