For 21 years, OSF has held to the hope that this annual event would no longer be necessary — that a cure for AIDS/HIV would be found and the spread of this deadly disease would be halted. OSF will continue to hold these benefits as long as funds are needed for AIDS/HIV research and charitable support. The Daedalus Project enables our community to remember and celebrate those who have died, and to work together to bring this disease to an end.

This year's Daedalus Events will take place on Sunday and Monday, August 17-18. Call the Box Office at (800) 219-8161 or (541) 482-4331 for more information or to order tickets, priced at $30 or $25. Events normally include a Sunday morning 5K Run/Walk, an OSF company Art & Treasures Sale in the Bowmer Theatre lobby; lemonade and t-shirt sales on the Festival bricks, a Monday afternoon play reading, and the Monday evening Variety Show on the Elizabethan Stage/Allen Pavilion.

For registration information on the 5K Run/Walk, please call 541-482-2111, ext. 422.
