Welcome to Creative Action Institute's benefit auction, Art for Action, where the power of art merges with the spirit of change! This month-long online benefit auction celebrates the use of art as an advocacy tool to create a more equal world and foster sustainability. As we unite under a common goal, we invite you to participate and make a tangible difference.

 

The art auction features the artwork of a collective of Peruvian artisans and eleven professional artists representing 8 countries. Each artist has worked on Creative Action Institute's Creative Advocacy Practicums. Through art, they empower participants to become grassroots advocates, igniting change in their communities. 

 

Your bids and donations during this event support our unique programming, enabling girls, women mentors, and grassroots advocates in remote areas to access vital training and resources. Together, we tackle issues like gender-based violence, teen pregnancy, child marriage, deforestation, pollution, and threats to wildlife and biodiversity. 

 

Bidding is open between October 1st and October 31st, closing at 9pm EST. Please allow up to 1.5 months to receive artwork after bidding closes on October 31st. Proceeds from art sales benefit both Creative Action Institute and the partner artists.

 

Special thanks to Digital Silver Imaging, who are responsible for the high quality of our prints.

 

On Thursday, October 10th, at 12pm EST, you are invited for a live online event featuring talks from the artists on their work and their use of art as an advocacy tool. Register for the free event below. 

 

By joining us at the Art for Action Auction, you become an agent of change, promoting art as a catalyst for a brighter, more sustainable future. Thank you!
