The Artful Bra
Support for the arts - North County Times
Nancy Kimerly of Encinitas, left, and Alessandra Colfi of Oceanside help Veronica Renner of Venezuela with her bra art Wednesday as a part of the San Diego Cancer Center and Research Institute's Artful Bra Expressive Arts Playshop. The program lets cancer patients, caregivers and survivors create works of art out of bras that they can wear, hang on the wall or fold in half and make into Ta-Ta Totes or bra-purses. Colfi and Kimerly created the program, which they said fosters "expressive healing."
