Art of Healing!

November 30th was the night of Art of Healing and HAGA was there!


This year's Art of Healing was PSU's 3rd annual multimedia benefit show, and this year, it was the kick-off to AIDS awareness week! All the proceeds from the show went towards Save the Children.

Anyway, during intermission, people who went to the event could go downstairs to check out the art made by students and go to the booths where you could buy bags and T-shirts (and those profits would also go to non-profit orgs).

Well, HAGA was there, and HAGA art took up one WHOLE display case! The members in the picture are (right to left) Shea Molloy, Nadir Khan, Emily Miethner, Desiree O'Kane, Scarlett Hubbard, Miles Zinni, and Carmen Lew, and all of them had art in the case! (not pictured, Jenny Hart and Brendan Bailey)

It went *AMAZINGLY*! Oh, and the picture was shamelessly stolen from Scarlett's Facebook :)
