Imagine Freedom: Art Works for Abolition is LIVE for 24 more hours...
We invite you to look at the incredible artwork, place bids, and share this newsletter with your community. Works on artsy.net range from $50+, and the exhibition is worth a look! The Silent Auction (over 60 pieces) will close at 1pm PDT on Wednesday, October 14.
We have started an Imagine Freedom: Art Works for Abolition video playlist, including the artist talks from our "Making Abolition Irresistible" webinar. Watch all the videos here.
P.S. Looking for art under $100? Be sure to check out Nisha K Sethi’s new “JOY!” print, custom-made for Imagine Freedom! You can buy a print here; all proceeds go to CR.
