Support breast cancer treatment and be entertained with “uniquely styled brassieres” Aug. 25 at the fifth annual 2019 Bra Art Dallas founded by neighborhood resident Tracy Thornton-Clinton. The event raises money to support clients of The Bridge Breast Network, 4000 Junius St. in East Dallas.
Thornton-Clinton’s mother was a Bridge client prior to her death, and Thornton-Clinton says she began the event in 2015 in honor of her mother.
Last year’s event raised $25,000, the bulk of which was donated to Bridge to fund breast cancer diagnostic and treatment services for low-income, uninsured and underinsured women and men.
The artistic brassieres are modeled by amateurs, and the event includes music, refreshments and a charity raffle.
For information, contact Thornton-Clinton at tcclinton1@hotmail.com or 214-815-3445. The free event will take place at the Fraternal Order of Eagles, 8500 Arturo Drive, from 2-5 p.m.
