Art Against Autism: painted guitars, live bands
Press Release posted July 18, 2007
Charity concerts by Blonde Redhead, Ted Leo, and more
Art Against Autism is a project sponsored by Gibson Guitar, Schatzi Marketing and JellyNYC. At each of this summer's Pool Parties in Brooklyn's McCarren Park, the concert-goes are given the opportunity to observe an artist such as Daniel St. George, Zach Johnsen, Maya Hayuk, Motomichi Nakamura and Steph Davidson painting directly on a guitar in real time as they listen to performances by bands such as Blonde Redhead, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, TV on the Radio and many more. Once all nine guitars are completed (one per event), the guitars will be auctioned with 100% of the proceeds going to the charity Cure Autism Now.
