Join us for the official opening of Smile Gallery DC, an expansion of our mission where contemporary art directly supports charitable dental care. The evening will feature curated works from up and coming artist Amos Arrow.

An intimate fine art reception and hybrid auction supporting UNC–Chapel Hill’s ACRED (Alumni Committee on Racial and Ethnic Diversity) and the Sonja Haynes Stone Center for Black Culture and History. Hosted by Dr. Lee Gause, the evening will feature a curated gallery preview, tribute moment honoring his father’s legacy, impact remarks, and a live auction paired with an online catalog for broader participation. Proceeds will advance philanthropic initiatives while reinforcing Smile’s commitment to measurable, community-centered impact.
