Improving Lives Through Art Is Back This Fall With MSAA

You asked, and we answered! By popular demand, the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America (MSAA) is bringing back our Improving Lives Through Art Series this fall with four new experiences – two paint-along events and two virtual art tour dates!

MSAA has long celebrated the benefits of artistic expression for the MS community with our annual Art Showcase displaying artwork created by individuals living with MS. We invite you to join us for this new series of virtual fundraising events highlighting art as a way of therapeutic expression and connection.

Starting in September, the paint-along events will once again be led by MSAA Art Showcase participant Hannah Garrison, and feature Joe Caliva, art enthusiast and host from our past tours.

New for the fall series

We have a limited number of season passes available! Commit to attend all four events for unique benefits and savings! Both VIP and General passes are available and include supplies needed for each paint-along event. These season passes are only available until September 7, 2021 and can be purchased on any of the individual event ticketing pages.

Please see below for an official list of dates, times, and details for each event in the fall series:
