Princeton NJ Non-Profit Announcements

Princeton, NJ, September 11, 2025 - YWCA Princeton's Breast Cancer Resource Center (BCRC) will host its eighth-annual Beyond Pink Art Show on Thursday, October 23, at MarketFair Mall. This event honors survivors, thrivers, and those impacted by breast cancer through original artworks created by or inspired the breast cancer journey. The collection includes paintings, photographs, sculptures, and mixed media pieces, many of which are made through the BCRC's Healing Arts Program. Following the opening reception on October 23, the artwork will remain on display as a pop-up gallery open to the public from October 24–25. 

 

"Beyond Pink is our community at its best – art that inspires and action that removes barriers," said Rose Wong, Chief Executive Officer of the YWCA Princeton. "Coming together for this vital fundraiser turns community support and compassion into access. When we show up and support the Beyond Pink Art Show, we do more than celebrate art - we support the Breast Cancer Resource Center so no woman has to choose between the care and services she needs and affordability. Funds raised at Beyond Pink ensures our programs and services will remain free to all women at every stage of their breast cancer journey."  

 

More than just an art show, Beyond Pink is a celebration of courage, creativity, and community. "At the Breast Cancer Resource Center, we believe that healing is not only physical, but also emotional and spiritual," said Melissa White-McMahon, Director of the Breast Cancer Resource Center. "The Healing Arts program gives our community a powerful way to express resilience, hope, and the complex journey of breast cancer. Our 8th annual Beyond Pink art show celebrates that creativity, reminding us that art has the power to heal, to connect, and to uplift every person touched by breast cancer." 

 

Tickets begin at $80 for individuals and $150 for couples, with all proceeds directly supporting the mission of the Breast Cancer Resource Center. The BCRC is currently accepting art submissions, sponsorship opportunities, and silent auction donations. For more information please visit https://www.ywcaprinceton.org/beyondpink.
