Why A Poster Project?

Haiti is on all of our hearts and minds. The Infantree decided we should help by doing what we do best, design and make prints. We are asking artists and designers to collaborate with us to raise money for the ‘Haiti Arts Relief,’ a program run by Build-A-Bridge. We will show the ‘Help Haiti Heal’ print collection during the month of March at our gallery. The prints will be available for purchase at the gallery and also online.

We understand a poster-project is not an original idea. The Hurricane Poster Project organized and curated by Leif Steiner (of Moxie Sozo), is an amazing example. It may only be a small drop in the bucket, but we invite you to join us in the effort (as small as it may be).

Why Build-A-Bridge?

It will take time to help Haiti heal. Build-A-Bridge understands the emotional needs of a crisis. They are mobilizing creatives to assist in art therapy with Haitian children who don’t have the emotional outlets that adults may. Tim Hoover, a partner at The Infantree, hopes to travel to Haiti with Build-A-Bridge in the early Spring.

“Build-A-Bridge is a non-profit arts education and intervention organization that engages the transformative power of the arts to bring hope and healing to children, families, and communities in the tough places of the world. Build-A-Bridge motivates, enlists, trains, and connects those with artistic gifts with those in greatest need.” Learn more on their website.

How Can I Get Involved?

We are asking artists/designers to print posters. Your editions may be larger but we are requesting 20 prints to have on hand to sell. Paper size should be 18×24 or 11×17 (18×24 is preferred). Prints will be sold for $25 with proceeds going directly to Build-A-Bridge’s Haiti Arts Relief fund. Let us know if you want to participate by February 1. We must receive your edition by Friday February 26. We will display posters online with your info and a link to your site.
