Bailey House,
a leading community based organization dedicated to
providing housing and supportive services for people
living with HIV/AIDS and other chronic illness, will
host the inaugural ART
HOUSE benefit
on June
14, 2023 at the Bowery Hotel.
ART HOUSE,
serving as a reinvention of the Bailey
House Gala + Auction, will bring
together art world insiders, supporters, and the
philanthropic community for a cocktail party,
auction, and awards presentation spotlighting
visionary leaders in the fight to end homelessness
and AIDS in NYC.
Hosted by Sharon
Stone,
the event will kick off with a special cocktail reception followed by an
awards presentation
honoring artist and activist
Nan Goldin.
Throughout her career, Goldin's work has shed light
on LGBTQ+ communities, the HIV/AIDS crisis, and the
opioid epidemic. As the founder of advocacy group
Prescription Addiction Intervention Now (PAIN),
Goldin has fearlessly taken on big pharma, holding
the Sackler family accountable for their role in the
opioid crisis.
Goldin will join an illustrious roster of previous Bailey House event
supporters and honorees, including: Nicole
Eisenman, Whoopi Goldberg, Debbie
Harry, The Robert Mapplethorpe
Foundation, Cynthia
Nixon, Catherine
Opie, and Billy
Porter, among others.
The evening will culminate with an auction that
features both live and silent bidding on fine art
and exclusive one-of-a-kind experiences. Attendees
will have the opportunity to bid on an assortment of
luxury items as well as an eclectic variety of art
from an array of renowned and emerging artists that
include works from:
Nan Goldin, Herb

Proceeds from the auction will benefit the Bailey
House, which has been addressing poverty,
homelessness, mental health, substance use, and
chronic illness among low-income New Yorkers for
nearly four decades.
In January
2019, Bailey House merged with Housing
Works, the nation's leading HIV/AIDS advocacy and
service organization.
The combined entity is of the largest NY supportive housing providers for
folks living with HIV and other chronic illnesses in
NY.
The partnership provided a powerful new housing development enterprise
under the Bailey House name, dedicated to offering
clients with an array of expanded service offerings,
including primary medical care.
As part of the merger, all housing development for the combined entity now
takes place under Bailey House. Bailey House
maintains its own corporate identity, Board of
Directors, and independent operations.
The event is sponsored by
Amida Care, LDI Connect, Betsy and
Hunt Lawrence, Jennifer
Lacks-Kaplan, Kathleen
McGivney, and official framer Ziello
