Kickstarter project for L.A. vs War
It's been a long time since the U.S. has seen a good protest against the unnecessary violence of war. The artists of Los Angeles are putting together a massive art exhibition to voice their protest and to call for peace. Selecting the 10th Anniversary of 9-11 seemed to be timing for anti-war and political artists to assemble this multi-media event to voice their cry for peace throughout the world.
This event will not only consist of the display of fine art but will include music, teach-ins and sponsor the creation of peace murals around Los Angeles. It is currated by Yo! Peace, Center for the Study of Political Graphics, Political Gridlock and Ad Hoc Art. It is the hope of the developers to take this show on the road after 9-11 and share the message of peace with the rest of the U.S.
Of course a project such as this can not be done for free. L.A. Vs War has set up a Kickstarter page. Their minimum goal is $5000. There are various award levels for giving that come with thank you gifts such as t-shirs, limited edition prints and "peace books". Peace is probably the most righteous cause we can support today to please do what you can to help this venture.
