The idea of ARTSIDAwas founded in 2006 by founder, Chris Elliott who was looking for an opportunity to assist AIDS Community Care Montreal in further asserting their role in the HIV/AIDS community.
What began as a small fundraising effort to promote local artists and HIV/AIDS awareness soon took on more dynamic promotions when Joe Average, Tom Bianchi, Sharon Stone & Dr. Susan Aglukark Endorsements, artwork and support immediately followed amazing artists and humanitarians donated works immediately and without hesitation.
