"Creating Art to Save Lives"
Every year Artisans launches the Art-Bra Fundraiser in August to raise money to pay for low or no cost diagnostic breast cancer testing for Lake County residents. This effort culminates in October, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a month-long event hosted at Artisans.
Since 2012, Artisan has donated $63,657.24 to the Advent Health Waterman Foundation. Our 2021 fundraiser donated $8,924 to the Foundation.
Artisans donates 100% of Bra-Vo net proceeds and demonstrates what a caring community of businesses, merchants, students, artists and everyday citizens can accomplish together.
We invite you to take action by participating in Bra-Vo events and making a difference in our community. This fundraiser saves lives by making testing available to those who can't afford it.

Bra-Vo Raised $8,550 This Year!!!
The ladies behind Bra-Vo. (L to R): April Kauffman (Waterman Foundation), Heather J.W. Hopcraft, Tina Coalter and Christina Smith
"Bra-Vo," an art bra fundraiser presented by Artisans on fifth, raised $8,550 this year. A check was presented to the Waterman Foundation recently at a ceremony and shows the commitment of Artisans on fifth, a cooperative gallery, to make a difference in our community. In the last four years, Artisans has donated an incredible $24,350 to the Waterman Foundation from the Bra-Vo Fundraiser. Waterman Hospital's Donation Wall includes Artisans name etched in the glass as a permanent reminder of the cooperative's gift.
The money was raised through an Art Bra fundraiser in October for free or no cost diagnostic testing for breast cancer for men and women in Lake County. This year chairs Heather Hopcraft, Tina Coalter and Christina Smith have brought many new and creative ideas to the fundraiser and have made the Art Bra Exhibit a recognized annual event in Lake County.
Bra-Vo raises funds through sponsorships, art bra sales and votes, “Bartending for Boobs” donations at Bra-Vo Gala and flamingo sales. The Art Bras, on display at the Mount Dora Center for the Arts Gallery during the month of October, were created by merchants, students and artists and showed incredible passion for the cause. This year's Exhibit featured a "Breast Pocket Project"- breast pockets created by local artists in fabric, metal and glass in honor of someone fighting breast cancer.
Bra-Vo shows what can happen when a caring community of businesses, merchants, students, artists and everyday citizens united in a cause can accomplish together.
