Before his passing in 1988, legendary disco icon Sylvester made sure his music would continue giving back by directing royalties from his estate to two organizations: AIDS Emergency Fund (which later merged into PRC) and Project Open Hand.
Positive Resource Center (PRC) provides critical support for San Franciscans living with HIV/AIDS, mental health challenges, and substance use issues.
This year, I’m honored to contribute to PRC’s Mighty Real Fundraiser on October 3, 2025. As part of the auction, a framed, exclusive 18×24 “Blue & Gold” edition of my Sylvester portrait will be featured in the Mighty Real Treasure Chest. It’s a one-of-a-kind collectible created especially for the occasion!
Every ticket, sponsorship, and donation goes directly to helping PRC provide care and resources to those in San Francisco who need it most.
If you’d like to join in supporting the cause, and have the chance to take home a rare portrait, you can:
- ️Attend the event
- Become a sponsor
- Make a donation
This Sylvester portrait is part of my Portraits of Excellence project, celebrating Black music and culture icons through vibrant, playful illustrations. Explore this month’s featured icons and learn more at portraitsofexcellence.com
