Join Visual AIDS in honoring the work of Lola Flash, Philip Yenawine and Brian Butterick (1956-2019) at the 2024 Visual AIDS Vanguard Awards. Since 2006, VAVA has honored members of our community whose impact has benefited artists living with HIV and those lost to AIDS. VAVA sustains the vital 36-year legacy of Visual AIDS, and we are honored to highlight the tremendous careers of these crucial community members with this moment of celebration.
We celebrate Lola, Philip, and Brian with a joyous evening at City Winery on June 5, 2024. Join us for a seated dinner, full bar, and a special performance series to honor the legacy of Brian Butterick.
Can't make it? Consider a donation at the ticket price to sustain the mission and legacy of Visual AIDS.
