Brushes With Cancer is an artistic celebration that pairs accomplished artists with “inspirations,” people whose lives have been impacted by cancer as previvors, current patients, survivors or caregivers. Most of the participants are from south Florida.
The artists bring to life the inspirations’ twist on cancer — stories, feelings and experiences — with works of art that represent the inspirations’ personal journey with the disease.
All Miami is invited to join the artists, inspirations and their family and friends to view the finished works at a celebratory public art viewing and silent auction curated by Rosie Gordon-Wallace, arts advocate and founder of Miami’s Diaspora Vibe Cultural Arts Incubator. All proceeds will benefit future editions of Brushes With Cancer at the Adrienne Arsht Center.
Complimentary light bites and wine will be served.

Karen Sabatini, Inspiration“Brushes With Cancer was my first-ever participation in a cancer event. The program was beyond supportive and therapeutic. It touched me in ways that have benefited me physically, mentally, spiritually and also positively impacted my family and friends. My journey will be a bit smoother because of Brushes With Cancer. My beautiful children now realize Mom’s not the only one that needs strength, hope and perseverance to get through the impact cancer has on a life.”
The Arsht Center’s Brushes With Cancer is presented in partnership Twist Out Cancer, a nationwide non-profit organization that offers the platform, tools and community — online and offline — for anyone touched by cancer to feel connected to a community, and for many to take action.
