Rock & Art 2008 Charity Auction Information Coming Soon

Rock & Art is a Bank of America Pavilion program that pairs visual artists with national touring musicians. Now in its third season, a large-scale painting (30” x 30”) was created for headlining artists that played the Pavilion’s 2008 concert season.  Many paintings have been signed by the performers. This fall, Live Nation will host a charity auction at which all paintings will be offered for sale with proceeds benefiting local non-profit organizations: Action for Boston Community Development and Artists For Humanity.

About Artists For Humanity

Artists For Humanity’s (AFH’s) mission is to provide underserved city youth with the keys to self-sufficiency through paid employment in the arts. AFH began in 1991 with what was then an ambitious and unconventional idea – young people can provide, through their creativity, tangible services to the commercial world. This concept is now recognized as social entrepreneurship and is a proven model for youth development. Training and employing urban teens is a solution to economic disenfranchisement and has a resounding effect on communities. AFH employs Boston teens in paid apprenticeship in the arts, including painting, sculpture, photography, graphic design, silkscreen, and murals. www.afhboston.com.
