A call for art from Highrock North Shore:
Help us get word out to local artists! If you or someone you know is an artist, we’d love art submissions for our art exhibition and concert to benefit iSanctuary. With questions or to get involved, contact artspeak@highrocknorthshore.org.
Art Show Description and Theme
We are surrounded by beauty. That beauty, however, is often neglected and abused, hiding it from our senses, our hearts, and our minds. Artspeak: Restore is an art show that celebrates the unearthing of forgotten and neglected beauty.
We’ll be displaying works of art, in various mediums and dimensions, that explore the idea of restoration in all its facets. The works will be on display at Salem Old Town Hall the weekend of March 22-24, 2013. Opening night will be on March 22, 2013 from 7-9pm. On opening night, there will be local music and refreshments, and all art will be on sale through silent auction. All auction proceeds will benefit iSanctuary.
Cause
iSanctuary is a non-profit organization that helps restore the lives of girls and women who have been victimized by human trafficking. Since 2007, they have worked internationally not only to rescue victims of human trafficking, but also to teach them marketable skills as jewelry makers and stationary designers. Some of this handcrafted jewelry and stationary will be sold along with the donated art on opening night. Proceeds will benefit the women of iSanctuary.
