Valentines_2 The fundraiser and show’s theme celebrate the contributions and dedication of the life of Cynthia Mascarenas, a member of CHAC’s team who had given her Heart & Sol to CHAC. The Chicano Humanities & Arts Council (CHAC) was founded in 1978 by a group of visual and performing artists. The organization was established as a place where Chicano/Latino artists were provided with a venue to explore visual, and performance art and promote, and preserve the Chicano/Latino culture through the expression of the arts.

Original Art will be offered for sale by Silent Auction. Tickets to “Heart & Sol of CHAC” fundraiser include a complimentary drink, appetizers, and entertainment. Heart & Sol of CHAC will take place on Saturday, February 9, 2019 5pm-10pm at CHAC Gallery 222 Santa Fe Drive in Denver, Colorado.

·A walk-in Sip & Paint Workshop for $20 per person will be offered between the hours of 12pm-3pm on February 9th to Create Your Own Valentine Heart for your sweetheart or to donate to “Heart & Sol of CHAC” fundraiser.

Jay Michael Jaramillo, CHAC’s Event Coordinator, stated, “The Heart & Sol of CHAC fundraiser is a celebration of love and the love of art that takes many unique forms. CHAC members and members of the community are opening their hearts and souls to give-back to CHAC as an inclusive institution for the arts and humanities in Denver and across Colorado for over 40 years. CHAC is accommodating the emerging the artists who wish to create and display their art, as well as, the opportunity for collectors to acquire art by veteran artists and give the casual artist the opportunity to create or purchase a one-of-a-kind valentine for their sweetheart just in time for Valentine’s Day or to create some “heart art” to be gifted back to CHAC as an in-kind donation to be auctioned later that evening at the Heart & Sol of CHAC fundraiser collectors. The success of CHAC’s annual Heart & Sol of CHAC fundraiser helps CHAC provide multicultural arts programming, education within CHAC gallery and in the Denver metropolitan area.
You can’t spell heart without the word art!”
