Beats for Boobs (http://www.beatsforboobs.org) will host its 6th annual fundraiser on FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23rd @ 111 Minna Gallery, 6 p.m. - 2 a.m. Beats for Boobs is an annual fundraising event that raises community awareness for breast cancer through a collective celebration of art, fashion, food and music.

This year will be our biggest yet!! We hope to raise over $25,000. (Last year Beats for Boobs raised over $16,800 for the breast cancer cause). How are we doing this? With YOU, YOU, AND YOU!

What else are we up to this year?

- We're very excited to be hosting the event on a Friday this year for the very first time.
- Beyond the four walls of our home away from home, 111 Minna, we are hosting an array of entertainment and performances in the Minna alley which we will be taking over in full this year also for the first time!
- Loads of FOOD, EDUCATIONAL GAMES, FASHION, ART and BEATS to boot for the boobie!

"GREEN IS THE NEW PINK" is our theme this year! Knowing that environmental toxins are one of the leading causes of disease, cancer, birth defects, asthma, and reproductive harm, Beats for Boobs will help educate people on how to reduce exposure in their own lives and live at a higher level of health & wellness. The best cure for breast cancer is prevention.
