Stars are a symbol of hope and joy. They send their light to us even though they are far, far away. A traditional Inuit story says “stars are openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon those who remain to remind us they are happy”. The artwork for this Star plate was donated by artist Cassandra Ott to honor the memory of her family friends, three Pittsburgh brothers who died from AIDS. Proceeds from the Star Plate With Purpose™ benefit , who strive to bring hope and joy to people living with HIV and AIDS through counseling, services and support.
