Dear Friends,
Here is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a one-of-a-kind
show of "street art" and help CITYarts in the process. The Helenbeck Gallery of
Paris commissioned 5 graffiti artists to paint on the hoods of Porsche cars,
and the proceeds from the sales of these hoods will go to CITYarts to pay for
our projects with kids this summer! The artists now in their 30s and 40s felt
it was their special pleasure to give back. They remember the days when they
all looked for a venue to voice their creativity, and they wish they had had
CITYarts to turn to.
One hood has already sold! You could be the next lucky
collector and cherished giver.
We thank the artists, the Helenbeck Gallery, and the
collectors who help us to pursue our mission.
Please do not delay - visit, enjoy, and buy! There are only
4 hoods left.
All my best wishes,
Tsipi Ben-Haim
Executive & Artistic Director

Thinking globally and acting locally,
CITYarts' projects build bridges of cultural understanding and give
youth the opportunity to take an active role in shaping their future.
The Young Minds Build Bridges program connects our youth in New York to the international
community, spreading their voices in a quest for peace and raising awareness of global warming.
Our projects give youth a stage to ask, "What
can I do to reduce the speed of global warming?" Our teens are taking
the future into their own hands, getting actively involved in their
communities, and assuming responsibility through the creation of murals
and mosaics with CITYarts.
Since 1968, CITYarts has created 272 projects that have
transformed communities and impacted over 100,000 kids, collaborated
with more than 500 artists, and partnered with over 300,000 volunteers
in the process.
Thank you in advance for your generous support and for
joining CITYarts in celebrating 40 years of "Making a Difference
Through the Arts." |
