NoLA Rising's "It's Yours, Take It" - Location Announcement


NoLA Rising IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE OUR 2012 SIXTH ANNUAL "It's Yours, Take It" TOYS FOR ART SWAP 

NoLA Rising is proud to continue their long tradition of giving away art.  In our 6th Annual "It's Yours, Take It" we continue the art for toys swap with toys donated to benefit the Marine Corps' Toys for Tots program.  Bring a brand new unwrapped toy in a box and exchange it for a piece of art that has been donated to NoLA Rising from over 35 artists, both local and international.  We are still receiving work from anyone who would like to donate their talent to this cause.

We've always been fortunate to have been associated with so many great artists, artisans and photographers that have generously shared their talents with us and maintained a shared vision that the arts community is an integral part of the community at large.

NoLA Rising 6th Annual Toys for Art Swap - 2012 - Call for Art



NoLA Rising IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE OUR 2012 SIXTH ANNUAL "It's Yours, Take It" TOYS FOR ART SWAP


For NoLA Rising’s Sixth Annual Installment of It’s Yours, Take It, we would like to continue our seasonal holiday art for toys swap. For five years, we have helped create artwork that is donated to the event in order to raise toys for the Marine Corps Toys for Tots program. A collaboration between the arts community of New Orleans and street artists around the world to help benefit the children of New Orleans.

The premise is simple: Someone coming to the event brings a brand new toy in a box to donate for the children during the holiday season and they get to take a piece of donated artwork with them. The toys are then given to the Marines and they sort it for their annual holiday distribution. All pieces are donated and traded for toys; no money exchanges.

There is no theme on the artwork, so create as you wish.

Our venue is currently unconfirmed, however it will be held within the first two weeks of December. We will confirm dates and location once finalized and inform accordingly.

NoLA Rising is a 501(c)3 and can issue a donation letter to artists who indicate a value to their pieces for tax purposes. Please ensure actual value, in writing and detailing artist, mailing address, piece name and estimated value.

Deadline for sending artwork is December 4th, as always, thank you’re your years of support in helping make this event a success… THE REVOLUTION IS YOU! -Rex

SEND ARTWORK & DETAILS TO:
NOLA RISING / REX DINGLER
39280 TRAINO LANDING ROAD
PONCHATOULA, LA 70454


NOLA ARTISTS CAN CONTACT REX FOR DETAILS ON PICK-UP ARRANGEMENTS
