Yohance Bailey, Michael Rudolph, Dustin Tang-Chung, and Mick Thomas worked in collaboration with the Southern Tier AIDS Program (STAP) on a comprehensive project to elevate STAP’s mission and community impact. This initiative included the production of documentaries, professional headshots, graphic design, and commercials. The artists worked together to produce a film highlighting STAP’s mission and essential services, and the documentary “Hair Warz,” capturing STAP’s major fundraising event. They took professional headshots of STAP’s staff and volunteers, reflecting their authenticity and enhancing the public image of the organization. Through graphic design support, they helped create visually compelling promotional materials, educational brochures, and social media graphics to effectively communicate STAP’s message. They also produced commercials featuring powerful narratives designed to inspire community support and action. The collaboration showcased the artists’ commitment to using media for social good, demonstrating expertise in impactful storytelling and visual communication.

The Southern Tier AIDS Program’s mission is to compassionately and competently meet the evolving needs of its communities by serving people affected by chronic illness and to improve public health through disease prevention, care coordination, and advocacy.
