#GiveASign : Art for Healthcare Workers

About the Program:
With COVID19 hitting us hard in New York, Indiewalls wanted to do something to support our local medical teams and the other essential workers.
We've launched a creative response program - Give A Sign - where we collaborate with independent artists to design billboard-sized positive artwork affirmations, which are printed and installed outside of NYC hospitals. For each Sign, we will also be printing and delivering editions of 300 prints hand packaged with thank you cards to the hospitals so healthcare workers can bring the positivity home.
The goal is to spread joy to the hardest working members of our community, while also financially supporting artists in need.
Each art Sign + set of 300 donated prints with thank you notes cost $2,000. A new Sign is created every time we reach that financial milestone.
Corporate sponsorship for individual signs with logo inclusion is available, please email [email redacted] for more information.
The more money we raise, the more Give A Sign banners we can create, the more artists we can support, and the more essential workers we can affect.
