What: Brookwood Community “Works of Heart” evening
Where: The Post Oak Hotel
PC Moment: Whenever Brookwood — the life changing community for adults with disabilities — is involved, it is a guaranteed heartfelt event. So, it was when 600 supporters of the nonprofit gathered to raise more than $1.4 million, some $300,000 of that directed to the Brookwood Scholarship Fund, allowing more individuals to partake in the remarkable Brookwood experience.
This Signature Painting, "Don’t Break my Crystal Heart," an original painting created by artists Liz Flores Callahan, Belinda Hillhouse, and Citizen Austin Hanson were in the live auction and helped raise funds for the Brookwood Works of Heart Gala.
