"Accessorize This!": Help Condom Artist Adriana Bertini Get to IAC Toronto!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Friends,

The Brazilian artist, Adriana Bertini, is renowned for her work using condoms to make art, in particular wearable fashions. She has won numerous awards, travelled widely showing her work--including to the XV International AIDS Conference in 2004 in Bangkok--and would love to bring her own unique method for addressing HIV/AIDS and the stigma of condom use to the Toronto IAC this August.

Adriana does not have a scholarship to attend the conference, so efforts are underway by Pioneers of Change (http://pioneersofchange.net) to ensure that she will get there. To make a contribution, please click on the following link: http://www.tagstudio.net/devarts/node/276. Note that for a contribution of $25.00 or more, you'll be entered into a drawing to win one of Adriana's incomparable pieces of art!

To see more about Adriana and her stunning, educational creations, see www.adrianabertini.com.br, and write to the artist at adrianabertini@terra.com.br.   

Greatest thanks!! 

Janet Feldman
