IMPORTANT UPDATE FROM INDUSHREE:
We regret to announce that our planned auction-fundraiser event, "Art Heals!" must be postponed to a later date and new location, likely in the Fall. Recent events, and the climate on the USC campus makes it an inappropriate time to align with USC to promote the issues that are important to us.
