Online auction starts on Monday, August 10th 2009.

Artists Against Hunger is a collaborative effort between the design and arts communities to raise money for the San Diego Food Bank. We are seeking posters from high-profile and up-and-coming artists and designers from the United States and abroad.

The donated posters will be sold exclusively online, and all profits will go directly to the San Diego Food Bank. Our goal is to raise at least $10,000 to help feed the hungry.

The theme is "Help End Hunger." We are looking for uplifting art that will help educate the public about hunger-related issues.

The Details:
ParkerWhite and Thumbtack Press are dedicating space on their websites to feature the posters. Your part is to create a poster that will increase awareness of hunger in our local communities. The prints will be sold exclusively at thumbtackpress.com with all proceeds donated to the San Diego Food Bank. Thumbtack Press uses a professional giclée process with archival inks on a heavy, bright white stock. Artists are free to decide the orientation (square, portrait, landscape), size (18"x12" max.) and medium of their poster.

The Deadline:
A 300 dpi TIFF, EPS, AI or PSD file at 100% original artwork size (RGB color please) version of the poster must be sent to [email protected] using yousendit.com before Monday, August 3rd 2009. Directions on how to use yousendit.com are on the site and the service is free. If your file size exceeds 100mb please email me and I will send alternate directions for file delivery.
