Art for Life Chicago
Thursday, October 16 at The Mart
Art for Life Chicago is a juried art auction and social art event of the season, showcasing the talents of emerging artists alongside those of established creators.
This event offers a chance to bring together emerging artists with established artists, art buyers, and art collectors. Each year, we select a jury panel of highly accomplished interior designers and gallery owners who bring years of industry expertise and a genuine commitment to supporting the art world. Each artist is scored, and the top artists are invited to participate in the year’s Art for Life Chicago art auction.
Artists who choose to donate their pieces will have their work displayed and auctioned both virtually and in person during an enjoyable evening filled with cocktails, food, networking, and excitement.
Art for Life Chicago not only creates meaningful opportunities for artists, but with all proceeds from AFLC benefiting our Excellence in Care Grants Program, it also helps us raise essential unrestricted funds for local organizations providing care for those living with and/or impacted by HIV/AIDS.
Additionally, the top three artists are invited to DIFFA Chicago’s Three for Life event the following autumn. This opportunity includes a one-night-only exhibition for these three rising artists to showcase their artwork at a downtown Chicago gallery. This intimate art show is promoted not only to DIFFA’s cultivated list of art and event lovers but also shared with local art professional establishments to ensure widespread awareness and promotion for the artists and the event.
