Art Sperry
Live Auction Co-Chair/Master of Ceremonies

Art has always believed in giving back to the community. He’s served on a number of boards and commissions for the advertising industry, the City of Raleigh, and a variety of educational and cultural organizations. He’s also given time and money to support scores of charities, including the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the Cancer Society, the Humane Society, and the ASPCA. Art is the president of Sperry & Associates in Raleigh, and is a founder of The CC (formerly known as the Capital Corral) in Raleigh.

For 30 years, he and his partner, Paul Otto, have supported numerous organizations and groups dedicated to improving the lives of the LGBT community. His commitment to AAS-C (then ASA) began at the very beginning in a conversation with Sandy Hendrickson and others about the urgent need for a response to the AIDS crisis. He provided free office space, helped to recruit the agency’s first executive, and volunteered his time and the resources of both Sperry & Associates and The CC.

An active volunteer with virtually every AAS-C activity and event, Art has been the master of ceremonies for Works of Heart since its inception. The AAS-C’s “Lifetime Achievement Award” is presented at Works of Heart in honor of Art’s generous spirit.

Paul Otto
Live Auction Co-Chair

Paul has been a committee member since the inception of Works of Heart. He acted as the fundraising chairman for the former AIDS Service Agency and later as chairman of the auction for two events. Many valuable members and past members of Works of Heart committees were recruited under his watch. With Art Sperry, he serves as the liaison for the live auction.
