25 June 2012 - L.A. Derby Dolls to host fundraiser for Down Syndrome Association of Los Angeles

The 3rd annual fundraising event TWENTYWONDER, A Carnival of the Mind, presented by Down Syndrome Association of Los Angeles (DSALA) will be hosted again by the famed L.A. Derby Dolls on Saturday, July 7. The evening will be a bursting expo of art, science, music and comedy, plus an all-star roller derby bout featuring the L.A. Derby Dolls vs. the San Diego Derby Dolls. Proceeds will benefit DSALA’s efforts to support those born with Trisomy 21/Down syndrome living in greater Los Angeles.

“This year’s event is being served up in one huge dessert bowl of sweet pop-cultural confections flavor packed with an amazing group of 150 volunteers- performers, makers, builders, thinkers and skaters – donating their time and talent to lovingly blend the creative and surreal ingredients of Greater Los Angeles into an evening of wonder and awareness. With equal parts of art, science, music, and laughter we are 100% positive you will leave TWENTYWONDER, by evening’s end, a whole lot happier than when you arrived,” said Jim Hodgson, Director of Down Syndrome Association of Los Angeles.
