The idea to compile information about art donations for artists and charities came about because we wanted to help educate fellow artists and charitable organizations in the process of donating art. After some discussions, we had a light bulb moment and realized with collaboration, we could make the process of donating art a win-win situation for all involved.
This project is the result of two artistic women with very different approaches to life coming together in their free time and realizing a common goal. After two years of brainstorming, researching, compiling and more to complete this project, we are ecstatic to make this site live.
