Paint Love, Inc.'s Fifth Annual Artist Challenge Fundraiser 5/9/2020 3:00 PM - 5/9/2020 6:00 PM

Sun, 03 May 2020 10:11:14 GMT

Paint Love, Inc. is hosting its fifth annual Artist Challenge fundraiser on Saturday, May 9, 2020 from 3-6 p.m. as a virtual competition! The event was originally scheduled to take place at the MET Atlanta on April 18, but due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the fundraiser has shifted to a free, live-streamed event to ensure the safety of the artists and fundraiser participants. This year, three artists will each begin with only a blank canvas in a race against the clock to complete a painting in just three hours. Audience members are able to make donations to help artists “unlock” the supplies they need to finish their painting in this unique and fast-paced live painting event - all benefiting Paint Love’s arts programming. The competition will be live streamed and viewers will be able to donate in real time in order to unlock tools for the artists to use towards their painting. Funds raised through the Artist Challenge will provide critical support for Paint Love’s arts programming, which is provided free of charge to Title I schools and organizations serving metro Atlanta youth facing poverty or trauma. Throughout the three-hour experience, activities will be offered including: a mini yoga class, an art project tutorial and a DJ set dance party break! This year’s event will be moderated by Slam Poetry Master Daryl Funn who will be providing hourly check-ins with the competing artists.
