THE STARVING ARTISTS PROJECT

HOMELESS BUT NOT VOICELESS

How do you get people to stop and take a look at the problem of NYC homelessness?

We took their artful messages off the street and displayed them in an art gallery. The collection of diverse, handmade, cardboard signs, along with portraits of the artists taken by Andrew Zuckerman, debuted at the Dumbo Arts Center. All donations were given to the New York City Coalition Against Hunger and Holy Apostles Soup Kitchen, two local charities focused on feeding the local community.
