Baking for Good is good to Art for Change

Since we figure the love of art and social justice comes with an incurable sweet-tooth, we're happy to announce that you can now support Art for Change by indulging at Baking for Good.

With the motto, "a little sugar goes a long way", Baking for Good founder Emily Dubner created an on-line bake sale. 15% of all sales go to your cause of choice. Last year, Baking for Good raised $20,000 for over 100 organizations. Now, Art for Change is one of them!

So celebrate by shopping for special treats (think Mothers Day) at:

Thanks to a nonprofit called the Yellow Bird Project, the hot indie rock band Clap Your Hands Say Yeah has chosen to support Art for Change! By buying their cool, original t-shirt (on the right), this awesome band will give the profits to Art for Change!

We thank the Yellow Bird Project, and its founders Matt Stotland and Casey Cohen, for dreaming up a great way for musicians, and their fans, to give to their favorite charities and non-profits. Buying t-shirts has never been more noble! We encourage you to explore the variety of causes chosen by these great bands, and to consider how awesome you AND your friends will look in as many t-shirt designs as possible (but especially ours!!).

B/t 106th and 107th

Art for Change is pleased to present "Subversive", a group art exhibition guest curated by Ryan Joseph, featuring artworks by Joseph Borzotta, Gerard Gaskin, Monty Leman, Ryan Joseph, Jessica Rosen, Don Spiro. The exhibit explores the seemingly "benevolent" appeal of subcultures, and points out the parallels that exist among the subcultures of Burlesque, the Ball Scene, Roller Derby, Lucha Libre, among others. It looks at alternative conceptions of "masculinity" and "femininity" in spaces that redefine the role of gender and sexuality in a hetero-normative society. The exhibit and upcoming "Subversive" events also allow us to discover how these subcultures relate to each other and sociopolitical movements, and how they influence mainstream attitudes and culture.
