Project Art Lounge gives back. Proceeds from our activities support artists and the non-profit arts organizations that stand with them.
In these difficult times, when museums are closed and exhibitions cancelled, artists need appreciation and financial support. There are many ways to support artists, and Project Art Lounge will be highlighting some of the ways to give back in the weeks and months ahead.
The best way, of course, is to show your support by buying art. If an artwork inspired you at your last gallery or studio visit, give the gallery or artist a call, send them an email, or connect with them on social media. Set up a virtual visit if you can’t see them in person. Ask more about the artist’s work and if you can, buy something.
BOOK OF THE MONTH
This month in recognition of International Women’s Day on March 8th we’re reading Aristophanes original on the power of women to end war and give peace a (loving) chance after tumultuous years of violence and upheaval. If you prefer a more modern take on this classic comedy, we recommend Ralf Koenig’s comic book version here: Lysisstrata
Profits from affiliate commissions go to projects in support of artists.
THE POSTCARD PROJECT
There are also small ways to show your support and encouragement as well. You can even give back through the simple gesture of sending a postcard. “For the Love of Art” Postcards are a new fundraising campaign by Project Art Lounge. Perhaps you have an artist or creative person in your life who would enjoy a few words of encouragement “the old fashioned way.” Get “real” and send them a good old postcard. Simply choose one of our postcard designs – with some designs you can upload your own photo – and MyPostcard will take care of the rest. Recipients receive the postcard in the mail and profits from our cards are dedicated to artist residencies and other projects sponsored by Project Art Lounge. Register now and receive a credit on your first postcard you send.
THE GIVING SHOP
We also have a growing selection of other fundraisers dedicated to non-profit arts organizations. Visit our Giving Shop, select a mask or t-shirt and proceeds will be sent directly to the organization listed.
As always, Thank you for Supporting Artists!
