Why donate to the 6th Annual
Works of Heart Art Event & Auction

Your partnership with Family Service & Guidance Center allows Works of Heart to continue to grow as the city's premiere children's charity art auction. Money raised goes directly to improve the lives of over 11,000 children in our community each year.

Works of Heart is a unique event where beautiful and powerful artwork created by 10 - 15 young FSGC clients is auctioned off alongside donated pieces from top professional artists like you. There is also a silent auction featuring dozens of select pieces and other art-related items like museum tours.

This year’s event can be even bigger and better - but only with your help.
