FUNDRAISER THIS THURSDAY AT RADIO SOCIAL!

Kick off Memorial Day weekend right with a WALL\THERAPY fundraiser at Rochester’s raddest new spot, RADIO SOCIAL!

Thursday May 25 from 6-9pm.
Radio Social
20 Carlson Rd
Rochester, NY 14610

A suggested donation of $10 that night gets you live music, game tournaments (with entry-fee going to the fundraiser), raffles, silent auctions, live painting , and of course bowling!

Funknut will be performing an instrumental funk set.
Mr. Prvrt and Lea Rizzo will be live painting, with the paintings to be raffled off at the end of the night.

We’re taking over the back room at Radio Social, and you’ll be able to walk away with select perks from the fundraiser that night! Radio Social will be offering a WALL\THERAPY themed drink, with a portion of the sale going to our fundraising efforts. We’ll be providing some light appetizers to snack on while you hang out and learn about this year’s event.

Stay tuned for more details, and we hope to see you there!

Our Fundraiser needs your help!!
We are still cranking away at our fundraising, but we still need your help! Please take a moment to check out our campaign, new perks are being added weekly!

https://www.generosity.com/community-fundraising/wall-therapy-2017-fundraiser/x/290103
We’ve got a lot of great perks, from WALL\THERAPY gear to Rochester-centric perks to original artwork. We’re also adding more perks as others sell out, so keep checking back throughout our fundraiser!

What is happening this year?

After taking a year to refresh and to do research, WALL\THERAPY is back for 2017! Inspired and honored by receiving the CITY newspaper’s “Best Group Improving the Community” for 2015 and 2016, we are energized to expand the project even more, caring the project’s momentum forward to significantly deepen our engagement with the community through new programming intended to connect Rochester residents of all ages and all walks of life.

In addition to our traditional murals, we’ll be working with local groups improving the lives of Rochester’s residents to directly impact even more lives in positive ways. We’ll also be launching our first-ever conference on arts and activism on July 29, followed by a special community music event that same night to cap off a week of art intervention.

Your continued support will allow us to support the local and international artists as they produce visually compelling murals in the Rochester cityscape, in turn improving and strengthening our thriving community.

Please visit our fundraiser to learn more!

July, August and the beginning of September were busy months for us, and as the dust settles on another amazing WALLTHERAPY season, we wanted to share some of the amazing words and coverage that we got this year! From videos to photo essays, we are honored that so many folks have turned their attention to our project here in Rochester.

We’ll be adding more and more photos to the site here as well, but in the meantime, you can check out some of our images on our Facebook page:
