Stand Against Greed launch exhibition

SAG is a website currently under development by a group of artists in Victoria, BC. It will be a place devoted to raising awareness about global plights and solutions. It will act as a catalyst for social change by promoting generosity, equality and kindness. Willing artists will donate art work to be sold with 100% of the profits going to a cause of their choosing, so long as it is a non-profit organization, grass roots movement, animal shelter, global aid organization, local food bank, community initiatives etc. etc. etc. Any worthy-non-greedy cause will be acceptable.

The launch of the SAG website will be complimented by an exhibition gathering featuring anyone who wishes to participate, where art will be sold by auction for donations to artist chosen causes; essentially a real life example of the website. Any medium will be considered; subject matter related to themes of greed, social justice, equality, environment, sustainability, global awareness etc. is encouraged but by no means required.

There isn’t a set date for the opening yet, as it will happen when the time is right, i.e. when enough interest is generated. A greater diversity of participants means a wider audience. After participation is gauged, the location of the venue will be chosen and details will be filled in.

Please pass this event on to anyone who might be interested.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me for more information or any questions.
