New Our Project ArtVictory

Charity fund for people with limited abilities Para Arts Foundation  with support of Councilman Ari Kagan, Department of Cultural Affairs, and Department of Youth City Development (DYCD) is proud to announce project ArtVictory. The aim of the project is to  to help people with physical limitations to leave the isolation in which they have to be, and to provide them the opportunity to expose themselves and their talents to as many people as possible. In fact, we are talking about assisting the artists with physical limitations to share their unique talents through showcasing of their works so that people of New York could familiarize themselves with the art works of their citizens. The project fulfills this through organization of expositions in public places, for example in public libraries, concerts halls, large subway stations. The expositions are planned to be on monthly bases; each exhibition in a new place, with festive opening and closing ceremonies. general public, not online, and make their art to be entangled with everyday life of our community.

The works of 10 selected artists will be exhibited at the public venues for about a month, artists will be invited to the opening and closing ceremony, their works and their profiles will be created on Para Arts Foundation website which artist could also use for their promotional goals. If an artist wants to sell their works, Para Arts Foundation will support the intention and promote it without any commission..

WE INVITE disabled artists, venue providers, catering providers and volunteers to be part of this great project!
