Medical Student Showcase Talents, Help Homeless
INDIANAPOLIS - They're not performing cardiac surgery, yet the talent and effort Indiana University School of Medicine students put into helping Indianapolis' homeless and needy comes straight from their hearts.
The curtain will rise on the 10th annual Evening of the Arts at 7:30 p.m., Friday, March 23, at the University Place Conference Center auditorium on the Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis campus. The program features students displaying their vocal, instrumental and dance talents. IU School of Medicine faculty, residents and staff also perform.
Proceeds from the event will benefit Wheeler Mission, Horizon House Day Center, Salvation Army, Genessaret Clinic and St. Thomas Clinic. IU medical students often volunteer to assist with patient care as part of the IU School of Medicine's Health and Homelessness Project. More than $9,000 was raised from last year's event.
"Evening of the Arts is a wonderful opportunity for everyone to enjoy a great performance and at the same time help health-related charities in Indianapolis," says Ron Magliola, a third-year medical student and program director.
Tickets for Evening of the Arts are $8 each and may be purchased at the door.
