Art Works For Aid

In response to the refugee crisis currently unfolding in Europe, designer and illustrator Nina Tara has set up Art Works For Aid.

Nina is asking artists, illustrators, designers and photographers to donate small works of art to be sold at auction to raise funds for organizations such as Human Relief Foundation helping refugees.

Current contributors include book designers such as Nathan Burton, Suzanne Dean, Jon Gray (Gray318), Jennifer Heuer, Jamie Keenan, and Henry Sene Yee, as well as illustrators like Petra Börner, Rob Ryan, and Ralph Steadman.

If you would like to help by buying an artwork, the first AforA auction is today. If you’re a ‘creative’ and you would like to donate a work of art just send an email to Nina.

You can find more information about the initiative on the AforA blog, and see images of some of the work that has already been donated on the AforA Facebook page.
