Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS (DIFFA)/Chicago marked its 30th anniversary June 9 with a gala, “DIFFA XXX,” at the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago.
At this event, the organization honored Lori Cannon for her longtime activism against HIV/AIDS, including being one of the co-founders of Open Hand Chicago and ACT UP/Chicago. Cannon was inducted into the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame in 1994 as a friend of the community.
