This year, artforgoodcause.com is building up some exciting new plans to work with new artists to expand the idea of creating a social impact around the world through art. The idea is an international art competition to display artworks from emerging artists that talk about Global Warming, Youth and Tobacco and other profound causes.
The idea to support new artists by showing their work is a great cause in its own right. But, what’s even more thrilling, effective, and rewarding is showing artworks that will also contribute to a good cause.
In 2019, Art For Good Cause organized an art competition with the support of Art Impact International Organization on the subject Protect Kids From Tobacco. The event was inspired by WHO Initiatives on anti-tobacco. There were 55 artworks from 9 countries and it was an amazing and inspiring event. You can see some of the artworks displayed on the artforgoodcause.com website.
