This year’s Columbus Arts Ball will be focused around the Ronald McDonald House. The Ronald McDonald house is a place that gives families “hope” by providing a family feel with warm dinners and caring people to come back to after endless, emotional hours at the hospital. The RMH is known as the “House with a Heart”. This year we have a new challenge of how to present artwork at the event for silent auction. We want to emphasis the ‘heart’ and ‘hope’ of Ronald McDonald House without the obvious McDonald symbols.

The guidelines are as follows:
1. The unique piece of artwork needs to reflect one of the following: Hope, Heart, Columbus, OH, or Ronald McDonald House

2. The unique piece of artwork needs to have the word “Hope” somewhere in the artwork. (Make it a challenge if you like for patrons of the event to find the word “Hope”).

2012
The 2012 Columbus Arts Ball cause dealt with the Autism Society of Central Ohio. The universal icon for Autism is the puzzle piece. The Columbus Arts Ball cut out 24” X 30” inches puzzle pieces cut out of a MDF wood material. Each puzzle piece was given to an artist, parent of a family member with autism or a person who falls within the spectrum of Autism.
 

2011
The 2011 Columbus Arts Ball cause dealt with cancer through The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center–Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC–James). Through the OSUCCC–James we partnered with the Joan’s Fund who had an artful campaign called The Courage Unmasked.
