And what is the event?
At TAG Gallery in mid-city, Sunday, July 21, 3-6 p.m., enjoy an afternoon of food, drink, and of course, ART at Lyme Away 4: Heading to Germany for Treatment – Help Nicole Saari Win the Fight Against Late Stage and Congenital Lyme Disease. It includes a silent auction and raffle featuring dozens of AMAZING art works donated by prominent Los Angeles area artists to raise funds for Nicole‘s medical care for chronic tick-borne disease.

Live music by Adam Even and enough great art and other auction goodies to help you knock off your entire holiday shopping list – in July.

There will be over 80 pieces of art, plus gift certificates for everything from massage to beautiful home decor components from Liz’s Hardware.

Despite an ongoing epidemic in the U.S., late stage Lyme disease is not recognized as a condition by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), so little to none of the complex treatments – which can cost $1,000 a week – is covered by insurance; with Nicole unable to work, this family still NEEDS HELP. The St. Georg Klinik in Germany, which her doctors find promising, alone is a whopping $35,000 for the three-week program.
