During the Great Depression\, Franklin D. Roosevelt created the Works Progress Administration (WPA)\, which supported a number of budding artists\, including a young\, particularly talented one named Charles Schucker. \nCharles completed twenty watercolors/gouaches encompassing city life in Chicago\, Illinois\, and the nearby countryside. Most of these works are now in national museums such as the Illinois State Museum. Charles moved his family to New York after WWII and became a renowned artist and Professor of Art at the Pratt Institute. He is best known for his abstract paintings along with his contemporaries such as Morris Louis\, Helen Frankenthaler\, and Jackson Pollack. His major exhibitions include the Metropolitan Museum\, the Brooklyn and Katonah Museums of Art in New York\, and a One-Man Show in 1971 at the Whitney Museum of American Art\, and his papers and writings are featured at the Smithsonian. Visit CharlesSchucker.com to read reviews by major art critics\, his biography\, and view available works. \nThis particular watercolor/gouache painting comes from the family collection of Cheryl Chang and Carrie Schucker\, Ph.D\, member of the Rotary Club of San Francisco. As there are only a few WPA paintings left in the collection\, the family is planning to host a retrospective show\, so this painting may be the last of its genre to be donated. This painting is being donated to Alliance for Smiles because of the life-changing work the organization provides to children and their families. An illustrative biography from the 2017 Walter Wickiser Gallery Show will be included with this auction package. The painting was recently custom-framed. Painting dimensions are 22″W x 15″H and frame dimensions are 32″W x 25″H. This is a truly priceless work of art and piece of history. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n KILN RESTAURANT Tasting w/ Wine Pairing plus 2-Night Stay at HOTEL NIKKO\n\n\n\nQuintessential San Francisco Luxury Package – Tasting with Wine Pairing for 2 at Kiln Restaurant\, Plus a 2-Night Stay at Hotel Nikko \nValue- Up to $1700\nStarting bid: $700  \nAre you ready to enjoy the ultimate luxurious experience in San Francisco?

SUMMARY:Storm Large – Live Zoom concert plus Q & A
DESCRIPTION:Join Storm in the comfort of your own home for a live show on June 6th at 2pm Pacific.  After the show ask her questions about her life and career!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStorm Large is a musician\, actor\, playwright\, and author\, with a voice that goes from velvety purr to mighty Valkyrie in a single phrase. Delivering American songbook classics\, Broadway tear-jerkers\, and rock goddess anthems\, Storm is a vocalist whose iconoclastic talent defies the laws of nature. \nStorm shot to national prominence in 2006 as a finalist on the CBS show Rock Star: Supernova\, where despite having been eliminated in the week before the finale\, Storm built a fan base that follows her around the world to this day. Storm recently launched her first major release with her new band Le Bonheur\, available worldwide on Heinz Records. Le Bonheur (French for “The Happiness”) draws inspiration from a rich and varied musical tradition; Storm shares her vision of a genre-free world\, collecting songs born of French theatrical chanson\, jazz standard\, heavy metal\, smokehouse lounge\, and a handful of originals\, and stitching them all together into her own singular sonic tapestry to create an unrestrained and impassioned exploration of love\, desire\, and truth. \nNote: A private Zoom link will be emailed to you in the days prior to the event. \n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.allianceforsmiles.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Storm-Large-Promo-Clip-edit-2.mp4\n\nPURCHASE NOW

SUMMARY:17th Annual Night of Smiles "Virtual" Gala
DESCRIPTION:See You This Saturday May 1st!\nIf you would like to attend the gala\, please contact Paul Vazquez at paul@allianceforsmiles.org or 415.779.2569 \nThe theme of the gala is the Roaring 20’s\, as we are ready to roar back from this pandemic. Please feel free to wear anything from 20s inspired flapper dresses or suits (if you want to get fancy) to your favorite pajamas or sweats (if you want to be Zoom-casual) – or anything in between. We hope you’ll join us in having a glass of something you love on hand to toast our amazing honorees.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSignature Cocktails\nOur resident mixologist Jeremy Rhodes has prepared some special 20s themed cocktails to get you in the spirit.  Please take a look\, and feel free to make one for the evening!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Program\nPlease enjoy this e-booklet\, which includes a welcome letter\, guest entertainer bios\, awardee info\, and our sponsors.\nRead Now \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to our favorite time of year: the annual Night of Smiles\nThe Night of Smiles is a time when we come together to celebrate the amazing volunteers and donors who dedicate their time\, talents\, and resources to helping Alliance for Smiles (AfS) forever transform the lives of children living in poverty halfway around the world. It is also a crucial part of fundraising to support this continued life-changing work for more children and communities in need. \nOne in ten children born with cleft lip or palate conditions around the world are killed at or shortly after birth due to the condition. Those who survive face manifold health\, mental\, and emotional challenges\, and often suffer abuse and abandonment by their own families and communities. \nWhile this is a highly treatable condition\, requiring an initial surgery that takes about an hour and a half\, children born into places without trained medical teams or who cannot afford the treatment suffer unimaginable consequences. \nThe volunteers and donors who support AfS in its mission make it possible for children all over the world to receive the treatment they need and for local medical teams to receive the training and equipment to build the local capacity to sustainably provide long-term care. \nCOVID brought massive challenges but also fantastic innovations to our work. We had to adapt to changing circumstances and expand our programs to include the remote training of medical teams around the world. This was so successful that it will become a permanent part of our offerings and it was only possible thanks to the continued support of AfS donors and volunteers. None of this is possible without you! \nHow You Can Help!\n\nDONATE NOW!\n\n\n\n\n\nCongratulations to our fabulous 2021 award recipients!\nNan Madden – Volunteer of the Year\nRosemary Welde – Distinguished Service Award\nJean Rosenblum – The John Uth Memorial Award for Significant Financial Support\nJoan and Burt Berry – Children’s Champion Award \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNews About Our Auction & Virtual Gala
