🎨👟 Art That Gives Back: Sneaker Ball & Silent Art Auction 👟🎨
...Presented by TheKIDSpeaks in partnership with Artbae, LLC and Artbae Foundation, Inc. on Saturday, August 15, 2026 | 7:00 PM
The Inspiration:
This Sneaker Ball is the opening event of a three-part series celebrating resilience and raising support for an initiative that honors those whose lives have been impacted by cancer, and is rooted in emotional truth expressed through art.
The Silent Art Auction will feature original works inspired by the universal stories that emerge from the cancer journey—transformation, resilience, faith, restoration, and hope. Each piece invites viewers to reflect on the strength of the human spirit while supporting a mission anchored in healing and celebration.
This is where the journey begins—with not just individual stories, but shared human experience.
Art opens the door. Community enters the space.

This evening launches the YOU-logies journey. The commissioned art series and multidisciplinary performances honoring individual cancer survivors and fighters will be unveiled later this fall during the YOU-logies Art Experience in November. Stay tuned for more Information.
As part of the Art That Gives Back Sneaker Ball, we invite every guest to celebrate someone they love by wearing a color that represents the type of cancer that has touched their life.
Whether you are honoring someone currently in treatment, celebrating a survivor, remembering a loved one, or standing in support of a family member or friend, your color becomes a visible expression of love, remembrance, and hope.
If your loved one's cancer does not have a color you know, if they were affected by multiple cancers, or if you simply wish to stand in solidarity with everyone impacted by cancer, we invite you to wear lavender—the universal color representing all cancers and those whose journeys transcend a single diagnosis.
Together, our colors will transform the room into a living tribute—a mosaic of stories, resilience, remembrance, and enduring love.
