Experience Michael Israel LIVE!

World-renowned artist Michael Israel can be best described as Cirque du Soleil meets Picasso--an artist, entertainer, and humanitarian whose expression is part David Copperfield, part Jackson Pollack, part Jackie Chan, but all Michael Israel. A leader of the newest art renaissance, flamboyant, rock star sexy and charismatic, Michael electrifies arena-sized audiences with little more than paint and passion.
Michael Israel will be unveiling a new series in support of children and families challenged by neurodiversity.
Michael had recently visited Unicorn Village Academy and was immediately touched by our amazing students. He spent one-on-one time with them and helped them create unique paintings that will be available for auction at our Angel Ball.
You won't want to miss his incredible live performance that everyone will be talking about!
Secure your tickets today!
