What an amazing year for the PCD Artist Project! I could not have asked for a more amazing group of artist who answered our last minute call to save this year’s project. I’d like to take this opportunity to publicly thank each and every artist who participated in the third annual PCD Artist Project. With their talents I’m am happy to report that we’ve raised $1,000 and counting for the PCD Smiles cheer package program. Exhibit merchandise for the PCD Artist Project 2022 will be available for purchase throughout the next eighteen months. Please help us continue the PCD Smiles mission for shipping smiles to hospitalized PCD patients through the gift of a cheer package, no matter their age. We hope that you enjoy our video presentation of the 2022 exhibit.
