Art of Giving 2015 [in Photos]

This year’s Art of Giving fundraising fashion show was a glowing success. With upwards of 200 attendees and incredible sponsors (including Michele Shermak, MD; the principle sponsor) the Art of Giving was able to raise funds for two very worthy Baltimore institutions; the Kennedy Krieger Institute, and the Baltimore School for the Arts.

Between the fashion show, gourmet lunch, and lots of lovely conversation, a wonderful time was had by all in attendance while contributing to a charitable cause. Peruse the photos below to explore some of our favorite highlights of the day.
