Finding a home for art by artists that we lost to AIDS.
I live in San Francisco. My apartment is filled with beautiful art. The artists who created this artwork used to live in this apartment. Unfortunately, in the 1990’s we lost them to AIDS. I’ve been a caretaker of this art for 30 years. I’ve had the honor of enjoying it and remembering those who created it. However, it’s time for these artworks to find a new home. Please explore this website to learn the story of these two artists. I would like to find homes for their artworks with people who respect and honor the history of those we lost to AIDS.

Do You Have Art that Needs a Home?
