Art auction in Hanoi for Operation Smile

Operation Smile Vietnam will welcome up to 200 distinguished guests this year at its regular major fundraising event, An Evening Of Smiles, to be held at the Sofitel Plaza Hanoi on Saturday Mar. 5.

The event aims at raising enough funds to sponsor reconstructive treatment for hundreds of Vietnamese children born with facial deformities.

An Evening of Smiles creates the opportunity for guests to bid on their favorite pieces of art directly donated by several well-known Vietnamese artists, namely Ton That Bang, Nguyen Thanh Binh, To Chien, Thanh Hai, Vo Ta Hung, Pham Luc, Le Huy, Le Minh, Ho Nam, Le Minh Nguyet, Tran Gia Tung, Tho Tuong as well as foreign local artist Helene Kling. Additionally this year Operation Smile will be auctioning two paintings donated by members of the A - Art Projekt based in France following their exhibition in Vietnam early in 2011.

Together with the auction, a sumptuous five-course gala dinner will be prepared by Chef Raymond Tan and his team and will be themed around fresh local products available at this time of year. A free flow of drinks throughout the evening will be provided.

For further information on both the auction and the gala dinner, please contract either Tra Ho or Julie Robins on 0912 679495 / 0913 966 131 or
