Art for Change
Are you an artist who has been inspired by the grassroots movement supporting Barack Obama? Come join other creative folks for Art for Change, a unique grassroots organizing event and celebration of the Obama movement. We are currently accepting submissions from talented artists and graphic designers. Your art should be inspired by and communicate the passion, ideals and vision of the Obama movement.
We are accepting all types of media and styles. We hope to get creative campaign posters, buttons, paintings, digital art, video clips, drawings, t-shirts, pottery, toothbrush covers and whatever else your creativity inspires.
We will display the art at an event in New York City prior to the important March 4th primary, when Texas, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Vermont hold their primaries, with 450 delegates at stake. As soon as we have finalized the time and place we will send out more information about the actual event.
We hope to do three things with the art that is gathered:
1. We will display the art at the event. We will also auction certain pieces (with your agreement) as a donation for the campaign.
2. We are in contact with the Obama campaign about selecting the best submissions to be considered for use at official Obama campaign rallies and events.
3. Most importantly, we will use the art to communicate with millions of people on the internet as they get ready to vote.
Please submit a photo of your art in jpeg format for consideration.
Artists have always been at the forefront of bringing emergent ideas and trends into cultural consciousness. They have been the vanguard in recognizing and catalyzing the paradigm shifts that have propelled human history forward. The Obama movement presents a great window of opportunity to bring about a paradigm shift in our country's politics.
Please submit your art to help bring the change our country so desperately needs!
To discuss submissions and get more information, please contact Adi Flesher at adiflesher@gmail.com.
