Posters for Immigrant Rights - we need your help

Artemio_rodriguez Attention Art Lovers,

We need strong and pro-immigrant art to confront the multitude of images of disempowerment given to us by our daily media - and I need your help to do this.

I am asking for your support in the production and distribution of FIVE empowering posters. This support is crucial in order to place them into the hands of hundreds immigrant right activists around the globe, and the thousands of people they help organize.

We need to create some powerful art to inspire and mobilize communities around these very issues. Five artists will create five oversized posters around the issues facing immigrants today. We will print EACH poster in a run of 5000 via offset and freely distribute them to the organizations attending the gathering. The posters will reach cities around the globe, so that we may introduce new and inspiring concepts about what it means to be an immigrant in the 21st century.

YES! We need posters for today’s immigrant rights movement!
