Get Trunk… for Pediatric Aids/HIC Care

It’s fundraising time! Your social calendars will be bursting this Spring with a barrage of exciting events, all for great causes.

We know everyone supports different charities, so we’ll bring it all to you and let you decide… On Sunday, April 26th, DC-based designer Dana Ayanna Greaves will be helping to raising money for Pediatric AIDS/HIV Care, Inc. with a fashion show sponsored by The Dunes (a creative concept company launching DC-based artists, designers and musicians).

Who is Dana Ayanna Greaves? you may know her as Artistic AYA, a local artist and designer who combines high-art craftsmanship with street style to create unique paper jewelry and one-of-a-kind frocks that have sold in local boutiques and national museums! You may have seen her label in Lucky Magazine, VenusZine Magazine, DC Magazine, Daily Candy, The Washington Post and on The Today Show.

Here’s the info on the event:

WHEN: Sunday, April 26, 2009 from 3 to 6 PM with VIP after-party to follow from 6 to 9 PM. Tickets can be purchased online as well as at the door.

WHERE: LeftBank Bistro & Lounge (2424 18th Street, NW)

WHY: The Dunes will donate 100% of the proceeds from this event to Pediatric AIDS/HIV Care, Inc due to the recent increase in HIV exposure in the DC community.

You’ll enjoy live entertainment courtesy of DJ Collins Hughes and local band Tennis System as well as limited open bar from 3 to 4:30 PM. VIP tickets get you limited open bar, a complimentary swag bag filled with various items from Yelp!, Radiance Medspa and Crooked Monkey and more, as well as admission to the after-party at Metropolitan, Napoleon Bistro Champagne Lounge, with complimentary champagne and DJ set from 6 to 9 PM.
