Chords of Color for a Cause
Presented by University of Florida Performing Arts, Chords of Color for a Cause is a festival geared toward raising awareness and understanding of different types of cancer through various mediums of the performing arts. The festival features performing artists across multiple genres who are themselves cancer survivors or, have supported a loved one through an experience with cancer. The festival made its debut in summer 2010.
Bridging the gap between the arts and medicine, Chords of Color highlights the positive impact that the arts can have on the healing process. The festival is a unique immersion experience for the audience member, utilizing performances, lectures and discussion groups to further the knowledge, understanding and support of cancer research, health care awareness and medical advancement.
Chords of Color for a Cause was made possible through funding from the UF President’s Office and the Dharma Endowment Foundation.
