About
About the event
Bad Art–Good Cause is an annual fundraising event hosted by Mike Vallée. It is an evening of art, music, food, drink with a goal to increase awareness for good causes in our communities. BAGC is able to gather a group of amazing people in one space, for one evening, for a great time while raising money and awareness for two tremendous organizations that need our support. This year marks the eleventh anniversary of BAGC.
The beginning
Mike Vallée recognized immediately following his first exhibit that the energy surrounding his event could be put to better use. Bad Art-Good Cause was born. Using the simple formula that suggests that it is easier for people to do good things when they are enjoying themselves, Mike brought the party to the cause! Originally using the his own art as the backdrop, the event has branched off and has started to showcase other artist who know that Bad Art is only a term to highlight the real reason we do this: To raise money and awareness for causes in our community.
The vision
To continue to raise money and awareness for great organizations in our community for many years. With the help of our team of organizers, volunteers and partners, BAGC has been able to do this year after year.
