2024 World Autism Awareness Day Youth Art Exhibition hosted by Franklin Foundation was successfully held at the Nixon Library & Museum on Sunday, March 17th. The event was graced by the presence of Irvine Mayor Farrah Khan and philanthropist Zhang Xianghua.
Irvine Mayor Farrah Khan (4th from right) visited 2024 WAAD Youth Art Exhibition, and Brian Yan (3rd from left), founder of Highlight International Art Center Foundation, delivered a brief speech.
Serving as a co-host, Highlight International Art Center curated artwork for a charity auction and simultaneously hosted the benefit performance in the afternoon, contributing spectacular performances of their own.
The exhibition and auction drew a strong community response, attracting over 300 attendees. The combined efforts were highly successful, raising more than $16,000. All proceeds will directly benefit families affected by autism.
