Brushes With Cancer

The Brushes with Cancer Program

Creating Unexpected Intersections

Brushes with Cancer is a unique and transformative program sponsored by Twist Out Cancer that pairs artists with individuals touched by cancer to create meaningful pieces of art that reflect their journey, emotions, and experiences. Through this collaborative process, Brushes with Cancer aims to provide healing, support, and empowerment to both the artist and the individual affected by cancer. The program finishes on a high note with our signature celebratory art exhibition, celebratory event and auction.
