The Insider: 12.14.22

for art’s sake | Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis is celebrating a major milestone. It reached its $10 million goal for Create: The CAMpaign, an initiative to ensure the continued growth and vitality of the institution’s exhibitions and education programs.


 

Astrid, a great horned owl, is one of 12 animal species that will be tracked and studied as part of the Forest Park Living Lab. The initiative is a partnership between Forest Park Forever, The National Great Rivers Research and Education Center, Saint Louis University, the Saint Louis Zoo, Washington University and the World Bird Sanctuary. The project aims to comprehensively examine wildlife health, behavior and interactions in the park’s variety of ecosystems.


Congratulations to everyone who participated in this year’s Pedal the Cause! The cycling fundraiser raised $4,543,878 to support cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center and Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children’s Hospital.


 

SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital patient Jimmy Williams has already achieved a lot at the age of 14. The Jackson, Missouri, native is an accomplished amateur golfer, a motivational speaker, heart transplant survivor and now a published author. His autobiography, Attitude of Grace, is available for purchase on Amazon.


Blues for Kids, the charitable trust of the St. Louis Blues, donated $5,000 to the St. Louis Youth Hockey Foundation. The funds will support the nonprofit’s mission to provide assistance to young players who face financial difficulty.
