Are you an artist—Or do you know one?

Amplifier is launching an emergency global campaign with top art curators and public-health advisors: “In solidarity with our global community of artists, we will award $1,000 apiece to 50 artists, with 5 winning works announced each week, starting the first week of April.”

Amplifier is looking for two kinds of work: “public health and safety messages that can help flatten the curve through education” and “symbols that help promote mental health, well-being, and social change work —during these stressful times.”

Amplifier is a design lab that builds art to amplify the voices of grassroots movements. We work with our community of social change partners, in both the for-profit and non-profit worlds, to build symbols, language, and distribution strategies that can change the national narrative.

We draw from a deep portfolio of artists to commission new art, then take the work and distribute it in unparalleled numbers through creative space hacks, reaching new audiences and driving real change.

Don’t forget to submit or vote on artwork by clicking here. Together we heal.
