'Bra Project' Raises More Than $2,000 for Breast Cancer Awareness

The Bra Project, an art auction hosted by the Boise State Women’s Center, raised more than $2,000 for the Breast Cancer Detection Center at St. Luke’s Mountain States Tumor Institute.

The Bra Project, now in its third year, is an evening of art, food and jazz to raise funds for breast cancer awareness and prevention. This year’s auction, held Nov. 2 at Mosaic Essential Gallery in downtown Boise, drew 100 people who bid on 32 artistic representations of bras created by local artists.
