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.

Ashley Smith, Inspiration“Brushes With Cancer, to me, has just been really a neat opportunity to share my story and to connect with someone who is there to hear me and wants to be involved in understanding more about my path.”
The Arsht Center’s Brushes With Cancer is presented in partnership with Twist Out Cancer, a nationwide non-profit organization that uses the creative arts to provide social and emotional support to individuals touched by cancer. More information is available at twistoutcancer.org.
