Basel Buddies is a charitable organization that aims to blend the lines between art and philanthropy. Inspired by Miami’s thriving art scene, sisters-in-law Manoela and Tori Burstyn set out to raise funds to encourage and empower underprivileged youth through art.
What We Do
We partner with local and world-renowned artists to give children from our community the opportunity to create one-of-a-kind masterpieces. All proceeds from the event will go towards raising funds to open doors for young creators in the art field. The youth in our community will benefit through our program by developing skills leading to confidence, creativity and success.
Why We Do It
The power of art goes far beyond someone’s talent. Research shows that when troubled children and teens acquire creative outlets, they are simultaneously receiving the opportunity to explore their emotions, develop self-awareness, learn how to cope with stress, boost their self-esteem, and expand their social skills.
