A WINTER IN DECO-ERA STYLE
The Women’s Board of Wolfson Children’s Hospital celebrated the 35th anniversary Art & Antiques Show December 1-4 with a fabulous Deco and Diamond-themed Opening Night Party and three days of collections from nationally and internationally distinguished antiques dealers.
The show featured hard-to-find art, furniture and period pieces, plus lectures and workshops by iconic designers and event planners, the Children’s Fashion Show with current and former Wolfson Children’s Hospital pediatric patients, a Sunday Jazz Brunch and more.
Mr. T. Wayne Davis, Honorary Chair of 23 Years
Proceeds from the 2011 Show will, in part, contribute to the current funding target, the five-year, $4 million pledge undertaken by The Women’s Board in 2008, to fund the recently-named Larry J. Freeman Behavioral Health Center.
Part of the new patient tower under construction on the campus of Baptist Medical Center Downtown, the Behavioral Health Center’s dedicated staff offers counseling and support for children dealing with surgery and in some cases terminal illnesses, and provides programs that address and treat the full spectrum of psychiatric illness as well as childhood obesity, eating disorders and depression, among others. Proceeds may also support other programs and equipment needs of Wolfson Children’s Hospital.
