The NBHRN, at the initiative of renown Puerto Rican artists Miguel Luciano and Juan Sánchez, has been inviting artists to participate inpostcards4oscar, an art exhibition and fundraiser for the freedom of Puerto Rican political prisoner Oscar López Rivera, who has been in prison for over 32 years.
postcards4oscar is a fundraising exhibition showcasing artists’ work from throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Artists are submitting 4″ x 6″ works of art on a postcard(s). The artwork will be exhibited anonymously (signed on back) and sold on a first-come, first-served basis for $50. Only after selecting and purchasing a piece will a buyer learn the identity of the artist. Artists may work in any medium or style and may submit more than one postcard if so desired.
The exhibition is taking place in New York at the Julia de Burgos Cultural Center on May 24, with an Artist Preview Event on May 23.
THERE IS STILL TIME TO SUBMIT A PIECE OF ART. Final submissions of artwork must be received by May 12th.
