Roughly 600 people attended the live concert which featured over 40 artists do donated their time and talents to perform or create a new, unique piece of art for the auction.

All of the proceeds will go to Minneapolis-based nonprofit Alight. Their rapid response teams are meeting with displaced Ukrainians.
