Start Here: Artwork for Rebuilding

START HERE is a collaborative art project open to artists all over the world who want to help the survivors of Typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana) in the Philippines (and probably other parts of Asia as well) and inspire the rest of the world through art.

The site is accepting submissions until November 26, 2009. You can check the Start Here homepage for more details on how to submit your artwork.

Let's help rebuild and inspire the Philippines in whatever way we can. Our artwork can be one for starters.

START HERE is a collection of artwork inspired by Typhoon Ondoy relief efforts that aims, in turn, to inspire others to help in rebuilding the Philippines. The hope is that we can eventually set up an exhibit where we can sell the artworks with the proceeds donated to Ondoy relief efforts, rebuilding programs and calamity risk management programs.

Why art? It is our belief that art is made because we have something to say and this is the perfect time to say something meaningful and in our own special ways. Art moves, not just our hearts but also towards a positive direction that we can choose for ourselves.

Say something. Move with us. Share your art visions of creation and rebuilding.
