Natalia “Bat Girl” Avilez, NBC Chicago Street Team
Aw Yeah! A benefit art concert. If you are looking for an event this weekend that involves music, art, and massages all in the name of charity, then do I have an event for you! This Saturday, Cornerstone Banquets in Darien IL, will be hosting a benefit fund raising concert for Ashley Baltazar, 19, who recently suffered a debilitating brain aneurysm.
In efforts to alleviate some of the medical costs that Ashley’s family has accrued over the recent months, DC-Tiny Titans artist Art Baltazar, along with some of his comic book friends that will draw and paint for donations. The guest list includes some DC, MARVEL, and Devil’s Due artists such as Mike Norton, Tim Seeley and Patrick Brower.

If you are an artist who is interested in expanding your sketchbook, Art will provide the boards. All you have to do is bring your own markers, paints, or crayons.
So if you are interested in assisting with the cause, meeting with local artists, or simply rocking the burbs with local Chicago band The Houseboyz, now is your chance! Along with original art pieces there will be live and silent auctions for trips,vacations, gift baskets, and they will even serve dessert!
There is a $10 cover and if you have your own tiny titan that is either 12 or under, admission is free.
