All over the country, artists of all kinds are producing benefits to raise money for Haiti. And comedians are no different. Last week, one of our favorite clubs, Comix, where we film our interview series A Tight Five, hosted a pretty stellar night of comedy for Haiti, featuring performances by Dave Attell, Janeane Garofalo, Eugene Mirman, Wyatt Cenac, Todd Barry and more.

Also on hand was Mike Mitchell, the creator of the “I’m with Coco” poster. A signed-by-Conan version of the print was auctioned of for $1,650 on Jan. 28, the night of the show.

The venue raised $7,625 on admission to the showroom, an extra $80 for bar admission, $2,100 on auctions, $780 in live raffles and more than $1,332 in eBay auctions. In fact, there’s still more live auctions on eBay. Check them out here. And check out some photos (above and after the jump) taken by Mindy Tucker from the fundraiser.
