“Silver Screen” theme reigns at Nov. 13th AIDS Project of Central Iowa fundraiser
It’s Hollywood a la Des Moines at this year’s 25th annual auction and live performance fundraiser…and you can be part of scene! Dress as your favorite movie star (costume prizes will be awarded), come prepared to purchase enticing silent and live auction items and packages and enjoy a spectacular show dedicated to movie music and idols. This year’s emcees are Steve Daly and Brian (Stinky) Smith. Now, that’s entertainment! That’s the benefit 2011!

There will also be special audio/visual tributes to past Benefit performers as well friends who have died due to complications of AIDS.
