Paintbrush Ball 2009
Paintbrush Ball 2009 was the most successful fundraising event in Marwen history, raising over $650,000 for Marwen's programs.
Thank you to Paintbrush Ball's co-chairs, Bryan Traubert and Penny Pritzker, and Deborah and Stephen Quazzo, for their tremendous leadership. And thank you to all our guests who joined us on an inspiring spring night.
Marwen teamed with global design and architecture firm Gensler to create an event that allowed guests to personally experience the creativity that occurs every day at Marwen.
The 530 guests were invited by Marwen teaching artists, and students to participate in digital photography, sculpture, graffiti art, digital video, and portraiture.
The presenting sponsor for Paintbrush Ball was U.S. Cellular, and the lead sponsors were DLA Piper and RISE. Gensler was the Creative Design Sponsor; American Airlines was the Official Airline Sponsor; Unisource is Marwen's Official Paper Sponsor.
