On behalf of the Board of Directors, volunteers, staff, and especially the 11,000 clients whom AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA) serves, welcome to the third annual Art Project Los Angeles. The year 2012 has been one filled with both victories and challenges. The former remind us of our capacity for success when we use all we know to fight this epidemic, even in communi- ties where it is most deeply entrenched. But the latter, too, reminds us that we still battle an elusive enemy: A virus that seems to move out of reach every time we close in on it. AIDS still has no cure. AIDS lacks even a basic vaccine. Right now, it cannot be stopped. And that adds up to one simple fact that we cannot deny: AIDS IS AN EMERGENCY. Long since the deaths of some of Hollywood’s brightest, like Rock Hudson and Freddie Mer- cury, HIV/AIDS continues to ravage communities of gay and bisexual men. Decades after the tragic death of Arthur Ashe and the infection of Magic Johnson, men of color (and particularly gay men of color) are at an unacceptably high risk of infection. And years since the advent of some of the most powerful and effective anti-AIDS drugs we have ever seen, many thousands continue to die, even right here in Los Angeles. Why, then, must so many more still face life – and even death – with HIV/AIDS? Put simply, one in five who is living with HIV/AIDS does not know that he or she lives with a disease that will spread and kill. That’s why APLA is working harder than ever in impacted communities like South Los Angeles to test and connect into care all living with the disease. It is both treatment for those who are HIV-positive and prevention strategy for those who aren’t. For the 60,000 Angelenos who are already living with HIV, we believe in the power of compas- sionate care – food, shelter, dental care and more – to allow them to live well with HIV. And from City Hall to the U.S. Capitol, our advocacy work gives hope of strong, sound AIDS policy. We are, therefore, grateful to have each of you. Each year, you support our work and insulate us against the changing misfortunes of government funding. You give of your art, your time, and your funds to ensure that we will never have to turn a single client away. And you stand with us as we collectively hope for a cure and as we fight like hell until then. Thank you for joining us at this very special event. Craig E. Thompson Executive Director AIDS Project Los Angeles June 2012 Dear Guest, We are pleased to welcome you to “Art Project Los Angeles,” our third annual art auction benefiting AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA). To those who have attended past events, thank you so much for your continued support! For those new to Art Project – we’re ex- cited to have you and sincerely hope you enjoy yourselves. APLA is thrilled to once again be a part of a great event enabling expanded support for the many individuals benefiting from APLA’s outreach. Our event committee deserves huge thanks for their dedication to Art Project – the success of the event over the last two years has demonstrated how much we can achieve with the hard work, determination, and support of an amazing team. Additionally, we would like to thank our wonderful artists, donors, sponsors and supporters. They are the true backbone of this endeavor, and without whom the auction wouldn’t be possible. APLA’s network of programs and services provides life-sustaining care and comfort to many of the 60,000 Angelenos now living with HIV/AIDS. Whether through its network of food pantries and dental clinics (both the largest in the United States) or through its essential mental health and housing assistance services, APLA is often the only place for so many to turn. And through its HIV prevention programs and its fearless advocacy, APLA seeks to end HIV’s assault on our community. Last, and most important, so much of the revenue to fund these critical programs comes directly from private donors like you, and attending Art Project Los Angeles is a fantastic way to demonstrate your support for APLA’s extensive mission. Once again, we thank you for your attendance, your support, and your bidding! Bid early and often!
