30% of all photographs sold tonight will go to the DC Collaborative. The installation will be housed at Source, a vibrant, multi-user performing arts space located in the heart of Washington DC’s 14th Street arts district.

Hosted by The Dunes, LLC., DC This Week and Senate Realty, Art Buzz is designed to showcase the works of DC’s top artists and actively raise funds for the DC Arts and Humanities Education Collaborative’s Arts for Every Student (AFES) program.

AFES provides DC public and chartered schools with access to cultural opportunities throughout the Washington metropolitan area. The DC Collaborative ensures that underserved DC public schools benefit from the region’s rich array of arts amenities. They provide free transportation and free tickets to music,dance, and theater experiences; plus trips to The Kennedy Center and museums.

In addition the Collaborative provides teachers with professional development sessions and study materials, adding further incentive to integrate the arts into their daily lessons. In the 2008 school year, more than 32,000 students and teachers visited cultural institutions through AFES.

Your support and the support of the participating photographers provides DC public school students with lifelong memories and an entrance into the arts community.
