In a hundred years we’ll be gone but the art we create in this moment will live on. Make some or just enjoy some here.
GLOBAL OPEN CALL FOR ART
In response to COVID-19, Amplifier is launching an emergency campaign with top art curators and public-health advisors from around the world.
We are looking for two kinds of work: The first are public health and safety messages that can help flatten the curve through education. The second are symbols that help promote mental health, well-being, and social change work during these stressful times.
YOUR art has power. Art can heal, art can save lives, and art can bring us together even while we are apart. It can be a compass to guide us through this storm. This is your chance to make work that will be distributed worldwide and will inspire us all to stay strong, safe, and united.
In solidarity with our global community of artists, we will award $1,000 apiece to 50 artists, with 5 winning works announced each week, starting the first week of April. These artworks will be distributed widely, both online and in the physical locations where they are needed most. All art selected by our jury will also be made available as free downloads for anyone to print and share.
These symbols will stand long after the virus is gone as a testament to our resilience. Please join us in this historic moment by submitting!
