The Event

Steps to the Cure is a truly local event, driven by the specific needs of the breast cancer patient, and visualized by the surrounding community of artists, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists culled together by The Larry and Lori Lickstein Foundation.

The Foundation -- started by a local plastic surgeon and his wife -- hopes you are intrigued by this vision of a provacative and imaginative event, and excited by our pledge that this event will be different! Embrace the Steps to the Cure by becoming a sponsor or guest, and we look forward to seeing you there, whether in high tops or heels.

Guests are encouraged to don their black tie and most creative footwear.
