Odylia's focus starts and ends with patients.
There are more than 10,000 known rare diseases that affect more than 400 million people worldwide, but only about 6% have approved treatments. Odylia Therapeutics is changing those numbers by accelerating the development of treatments for people with rare diseases. The scientific knowledge and technologies required to treat many genetic causes of disease already exist. However, with a focus on profits, the commercial model used to develop medicine means there is no hope on the horizon for many rare disease patients.
Odylia is a nonprofit, leveraging philanthropic support to develop treatments, no matter the potential for financial gain. We are in the business of helping patients. By integrating scientific knowledge, operational strategy, and technological innovation, Odylia delivers on the promise of treatments for the vastly underserved rare disease patient community, impacting current and future generations.

Enjoy a sommelier-led sensory wine tasting experience, complete with paired hors d’oeuvres, as you mingle and explore the gallery’s installations, powered by Sommsation.

With over 15 years of experience and certifications from the Court of Master Sommeliers, Adam Elliot will be leading attendees through the curated selection of wine for the evening. Adam grew up in the Philadelphia area and is inspired to support Odylia while sharing his love and knowledge of wine.

Opened in 1995, Works on Paper is an art gallery in downtown Philadelphia specializing in 20th Century Contemporary American prints and Contemporary artists, including Paintings and Objects.
