About
As part of its ongoing awareness campaign, Stamford Hospital has joined forces with the Fairfield County chapter of the Links, Inc., and Her Game 2 Productions to sponsor an annual extravaganza. Fashion from the Heart. This evening event, held at Stamford's posh Palace Theater was launched in 2006 to raise awareness about the risks of heart disease, stroke and diabetes that disproportionately affect the African American and Hispanic/Latino communities.
In a program dedicated to fashion, theater and music, the event spotlights the dangers of heart disease, stroke and diabetes with a fashion show presenting the latest collections of children's, men's and women's wear from emerging fashion talent throughout the eastern seaboard, whose work has also been highlighted at such events as New York's Fashion Week and Harlem Week.
The event also features comedic skits, called Theater Shorts, designed to entertain while educating the audience about these three diseases. These works were written by local playwrights and directors, James E. Hinton, Jr. and Trina M. Britt, in collaboration with Stamford Hospital Chief of Cardiology Steven Horowitz, MD. Actors from throughout the community bring the skits to life. The evening also features musical and professional dance performances by local and national artists.
It all adds up to an unforgettable evening...one that can truly change your life!
