We are thrilled to celebrate Michael Vahl as our November Partner of the Month!
Michael is a Tampa-based visual artist known for his signature “dry brushing” technique, which blends realism with expressive, contemporary energy. His striking portraits and large-scale murals have earned praise from collectors and brands nationwide. He has even created paintings for celebrities including Tom Brady, Christian McCaffrey, and Guy Fieri.
For more than four years, Michael has been a devoted partner of the Children’s Cancer Center, using his art to make a meaningful difference. Through generous donations of his work at our signature events, he has helped raise essential funds to support the children and families we serve.
At this year’s Wine Women & Shoes, Michael created a one-of-a-kind artwork in collaboration with Hannah, age 12, one of our incredible CCC children diagnosed with Medulloblastoma. Together, they took the stage to present and auction the piece, raising $40,000 and bringing the entire crowd to their feet. It was a powerful, joy-filled moment that captured the heart of the evening and reminded everyone why we do what we do.
Michael’s generosity and passion for giving back reflect the heart of our mission. Thank you, Michael, for sharing your incredible talent and heart with the Children’s Cancer Center community!
