Last week at the Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation's star-studded Art for Life fundraiser at Russell Simmons' East Hampton estate, John Legend and Swizz Beatz teamed together to announce an incredible donation.

The two acclaimed artists and philanthropists are auctioning off the opportunity for two fans to join them both in-studio for an intimate recording session to raise funds for arts education.

The incredible experience, valued at $50,000, is up for auction at charitybuzz, the leading destination for online charity auctions, through August 18 at CharityBuzz.com.
