Last Saturday, July 20th, fans at Legacy Early College were treated to a special version of the National Anthem by local artist Joe Everson.
Not only was the stadium captivated by Everson’s live-action painting, but over $1,000 was raised towards Triumph Over Cancer Night presented by Bon Secours.
Everson is known for his live-action performances where he paints while singing the National Anthem, flipping the canvas at the end to reveal patriotic scenes. Everson’s American-themed artwork was auctioned at halftime for $1,400. You can watch Joe’s performance here.
Proceeds from Everson’s painting will be used to purchase tickets for cancer patients and cancer survivors to attend Triumph Over Cancer Night presented by Bon Secours on September 13 vs FC Tucson.
Everson’s studio is located in Taylors, SC. He has been featured on the likes of Fox News, USA Today, ESPN and SportsCenter. He has performed for numerous organizations and teams such as the JJ Watt Foundation, Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Golden State Warriors, and the Florida Panthers.
