ABOUT THE CENTER OF EXCELLENCE IN ADHD AND RELATED DISORDERS:

Commonly misunderstood and often mistreated, ADHD takes a toll on both children and their families. The Division of ADHD, Learning Disabilities, and Related Disorders provides cutting-edge treatment and evaluation to children with a wide variety of learning and mental health issues.

So they can thrive and succeed—today, tomorrow, and throughout their lives.

ABOUT THE COMEDIANS PHOTO SERIES:

The collection entitled, “The Comedians,” was the brainchild of artist and photographer Limor Garfinkle. Featured within the eye-catching photo series are Tracy Morgan, Jim Gaffigan, Lewis Black, Jim Norton, Judy Gold along with 30 other comics. Each comedian was captured in a surprising and unique scenario that will surely be a conversation starter on the wall of the highest bidder. All prints will be auctioned off to raise funds for the Mount Sinai Division of ADHD and Learning Disorders.

In 2017 the TBS Comedy HUB at the NYCF featured the first annual photo exhibit ‘The Comedians’ and fundraiser for Mount Sinai. To see photos from this event, please visit: https://www.facebook.com/limorgarfinkle/media_set?set=a.10155128659556398&type=3
