graphic designers

I have been invited to participate in the Haiti Poster Project and I am very excited about being able to contribute something that will help out the region. Limited edition, signed and numbered posters from designers around the world are for sale on the Haiti Poster Project site and all money will go directly to Doctors Without Borders to support the continuing efforts to help the people of Haiti. It’s a great way to get some cool art for your pad while helping the people of Haiti.

My limited edition set will be 25 posters printed on French Paper Co. Speckletone True White, 80 lb. cover stock, recycled with visible flecks and shives. French Paper Co., by the way, rocks. Family owned and operated since 1871, they have been using recycled paper since 1955 and have been hydro powered for almost 100 years.

There are 2 ways to help with this project:

1—Buy posters on the Haiti Poster Project website, mine or ANY!!

2—Contribute to the cost of printing for my edition if you like. I have purchased my paper stock from The French Paper Co. and will be printing through a local vendor here in Beacon. My total costs will be around $100. You can contribute via my PayPal button at the top right of the blog. Your contribution will be noted on my poster if donations are received by April 22. Any money received above the price of paper & printing will go toward shipping or donated directly to Doctors Without Borders. I will be happy to post your name and a link to your site as well here on the blog.

The organizers of this project, Leif Steiner of Moxie Sozo, and Josh Higgins have also created The Hurricane Poster Project in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina, raising about $50,000 and in 2007 for the So-Cal Fire Poster Project, which continues to be a relief fund source for fire victims 2 and a half years later. They and countless others are making it all possible once again.

I will be posting my design here with a link as soon as it is available for purchase.

Many thanks and may your day be peaceful.

If you are an artist and would like to participate, follow the Haiti Poster Project link at the  top to find out the details, the deadline is May 1.
