Atlanta Cotillion

Since 1997, the Atlanta Cotillion has provided a creative and unique opportunity to raise awareness and funds for HIV/AIDS. Annually, a group of men participate as “debutantes” in a fund-raising competition that concludes with a gala ball. Since 2002, Atlanta Cotillion has donated more than $552,000 and has become one of the largest unrestricted fund donors to AID Atlanta, the largest AIDS service organization in the southeast.

While designing these projects, I did not want to hide the socially taboo sides of the Cotillion. At every chance I showcased it infused with artistic expression.
