ABOUT THE TYSA AIDS AWARENESS BAG

Designer TYSA teams with Artist Alison Van Pelt to create a chic tote to raise awareness
and money for AIDS research

Designer TYSA and Artist Alison Van Pelt join forces to raise money and awareness for AIDS research by creating a chic multipurpose tote.

On one side of the tote is an original image by Van Pelt, who says: “This image is a symbol of love and intimacy. We’d like it to be a reminder to be strong and respect your health and your life when you choose to be intimate”. Both Tysa and Alison agree that it vital that we come together as artist, individuals and corporations – and fight for those less fortunate. Tysa says, “We have a moral imperative to prevent prejudice and decimations, to fund research and provide services and education to people living with AIDS.”
