2012 Miss Universe Contestants Showing “Artsy” Side
To Support Medical Treatment for Nevada’s Children
Auctioned Artwork to Benefit Uninsured Children in Need of Care

LAS VEGAS – Nov 29, 2012 – They’re beautiful, talented, poised and creative.

Soon the world will see their artistic abilities as well, as many of the 2012 Miss Universe Pageant contestants will put a brush to canvas and create a unique piece of art to be auctioned off in support of Nevada’s children facing life threatening diseases.

In partnership with Design & Wine, a Las Vegas based, step-by-step canvas painting studio and restaurant, and Cure 4 The Kids Foundation which supports the state’s only non-profit cancer outpatient treatment center, the contestant’s artwork will be auctioned off in support of charity care programs providing treatment to children with and without medical insurance.

“Many people believe art is a form of therapy. We are so happy we can provide some relaxation for Miss Universe contestants prior to their important competition and at the same time put these finished pieces up for auction to benefit Nevada’s children in need of medical care,” said Rachel Roberts, co-founder of Design & Wine Eat Drink Paint.
