Donations for Creations
We're bringing Richmond's artists and community members together to benefit the city.

On the day of the event, works of art contributed by local artists and artisans will be exchanged for donations of canned food and warm clothing. Everyone benefits—artists and art students can get their work out to a wider audience, the public has a chance to collect art affordably, and Richmond's homeless aid programs get supplies they desperately need this time of year.

This event is being organized by a group of Seniors in VCU's Graphic Design department. The project is inspired by the socially conscious design attitudes and practices taught by Noah Scalin in his course Design Rebels.
