"GIMME SHELTER"
An exhibit to raise money and awareness for national problem of homelessness.
Exhibit: ONE NIGHT ONLY! - Friday, March 23rd, 2007
7-11 pm, free and open to the public
Music by: Troy Curtis
GIMME SHELTER is a touring exhibition of 400 works of art by 280 artists on cardboard to raise awareness and money for the national problem of homelessness.
Homelessness is roughly defined as “not having a safe, permanent, affordable place to live.” It affects more than 600,000 people in the US on a daily basis, with about one-third of that number identified as “families”.
Projections of homelessness in America paint a gloomy picture. Without intervention, and given the current rate of inflation, more than one million people could be homeless within the next ten years. The majority of the new homeless will be our elderly who will have to choose between vital medicine and a roof over their heads.
Gimmeshelter is partnered with The National Coalition for the Homeless, a Washington, D.C. - based organization that is dedicated not only to solving the systemic issues that lead to homlessness but works to provide for the immediate needs of the homeless. Any funds raised as a result of the US shows will go directly to the National Coalition for the Homeless.
Artists from around the globe have contributed works on a piece of corrugated cardboard, no larger that twelve inches on any one side. The list of talent ranges from well-known artists to obscure emerging talent. (Some familiar names to the Anno Domini audience would be: Anthony Ausgang, attaboy, BigFoot, BLINKY, Laura Brink, Dalek, Mike Giant, Jennybird, Jeremyville, Mars1, Kathie Olivas, OuchClub, Alex Pardee, Andrew Pommier, Poor Al, Jesse Reno and THINKMULE to name a few.)
Nine cities across the US will host the exhibit including Tampa, Brooklyn, Indianapolis, San Jose, LA, Portland, Chicago and Buffalo, NY.
Following the tour, all works of art will be sold on the Gimme Shelter website.
100% of the proceeds will be donated to: National Coalition for the Homeless
