Art Project Los Angeles is the world-class, red-carpet art auction that returns to Bonhams & Butterfields in Hollywood later this month. The third annual event is known for featuring works by artists including Picasso, Warhol, Haring, Basquiat, and many more, along with a range of pieces from emerging artists.
The Saturday evening reception, which will include a live auction, is expected to draw celebrity attendees including Helena Bonham Carter, Kathy Griffin, Wynona Judd, Shirley MacLaine, Ross Matthews, Alfred Molina, Pauley Perrette, Sidney and Joanna Poitier, Denise Richards, RuPaul, Jane Seymour, and Alfre Woodard – all of whom are members of the event’s high-profile Entertainment Host Committee. The committee is co-chaired by Jackie Collins and Barry Krost.
Proceeds benefit APLA in its efforts to help shape fair and effective HIV/AIDS related policy and legislation in response to the local, national, and global epidemics.
