Beats for Boobs, the all-volunteer San Francisco based organization that grants financial support to local breast cancer nonprofits, will take you back to the roaring 1920’s as they celebrate, honor and remember those impacted by breast cancer at their annual fashion show and fundraiser. For the past thirteen years, Beats for Boobs has combined art, fashion, food, music, and education to inspire the community to take action, volunteer, and to donate. This year’s theme will whisk you away to a hidden world of flappers, gangsters and raucous revelry at their Prohibition-inspired exclusive event.
The evening will feature lively entertainment including swing dance performances by Lindy in the Park and musical performance by Aima the Dreamer, dazzling local DJ’s such as Lauren Li (Twisted Headphones), ViaJay (Angels of bAss) and DJ Mancub (The Space Cowboys), brilliant art by Heather Joyce Morrilll, light hors d'oeuvres and culinary delights, beneficiary information stations, and a beautiful, sultry crowd dressed in their finest 1920’s inspired outfits.
The highlight of the evening is a boutique style fashion show featuring Bay Area designers Alexander Michael Snyder, miss velvet cream, Jessica Hoff and Warrior Within Designs.
PLUS a raffle and silent auction with prizes such as a two night getaway to the Anderson Valley Inn in Mendocino, extraordinary wines, top-rated San Francisco restaurants, health and wellness gifts, beauty baskets and more!
