Our dear friend Celina Leroy is back! Following her hugely successful Vascular Birthmark Portrait Show last year, we are delighted to invite you to a special pop-up show featuring some of Celina’s latest portraits.
Celina is a Brooklyn-based artist and New York City art teacher. Her portraits showcase the beauty of individuals with facial differences, including those caused by port-wine stain (PWS) birthmarks and other venous malformations.

This event will be in collaboration with the Birthmark Society Apparel Company:
“We want to reduce the stigma associated with having a vascular birthmark. Normalize and show that birthmarks are dope. Our goal is to enhance community connection through our own representation and hopefully one day globally bring us together. And as we grow we look forward to creating in person community events via the brand and organizations such as The Sturge Weber Foundation. Nevus Outreach organization. And The Vascular Birthmark Foundation (VBF).”
