We Are Artists for Emanuel
Artists for Emanuel is a group of more than 90 visual artists from Charleston, SC, who are creating a body of work for display and auction responding to their personal grief to the tragedy at Mother Emanuel AME Church.
The auction will benefit the Lowcountry Unity Fund and spark emotional responses for love, community, and unity to honor the families and the fallen. The Lowcountry Unity Fund was formed by the Coastal Community Foundation in response to the tragedy at Mother Emanuel for the purpose of promoting long-term solutions that address systemic issues contributing to racism and economic inequality in African-American communities.
Event Details:
Wednesday, Nov. 11, 6-9pm at the Cigar Factory, 701 East Bay St.: “Straight From The Heart” silent auction and reception featuring The Colour of Music festival artists.
Free and open to the public ($10 donation accepted at the door). Space is limited; you can also visit during the open exhibition hours (Tuesday, Nov. 10 & Wednesday, Nov. 11, 9am-4pm).
We are also delighted to announce that the Colour of Music festival artists (a group of black classical musicians), the Charleston Spiritual Ensemble, and the Charleston Gospel Choir will provide three moving musical interludes during the reception. Art is music, and music is art. Combined, the two will ensure an energetic auction and delightful evening.
