Creating Breakthroughs

Old windows.
New reasons to give.

A reclaimed window can become something extraordinary. Artists and neighbors bring their own ideas to each piece, turning familiar materials into art with a purpose.

On October 25, come see what our community has created. Find a favorite, place a bid, and help support Breakthrough T1D through the artwork you bring home.

Meet the project’s artists

Thank you to everyone who joined us at our Design Center on October 1 to celebrate our community’s creativity.

There’s still room for your creativity

Artists,
we could use you.

We’re still looking for artists and creative community members to contribute to this year’s artwork auction. Have an idea for a reclaimed window? We’d love to hear it.

Help create something that gives back.

Art sashes must be ready by Friday, October 23 so we can take them down to the walk on Sunday, October 25.

Contact Energy Swing to ask about participating, available windows, and arranging drop-off.
