Annual International Charity Postcard Exhibition - the Twitter Art Exhibit (TAE) - TAE18 AUS. Now in it's eighth year, the TAE is hosted and exhibited in a different country each year, benefiting a local Not For Profit Charity. #TwitterArtExhibit founder, David Sandum “Through art we can change the world.”

#TwitterArtExhibit utilises social media and public engagement to generate income for charities and nonprofit organisations. In the past, #TwitterArtExhibit has generated funds for a library suffering from deep funding cuts to purchase much-needed children’s books, for an abused women’s shelter seeking to improve the lives of the families they serve, and for an arts organisation mentoring underprivileged young adults in preparation for careers in the visual arts.

Artists worldwide are invited to donate a postcard-sized, handmade original artwork to the TAE. TwitterArtExhibit organises a local, physical showcasing of the art. The public is invited to buy the art at an affordable, flat price. 100% of proceeds go to the charity. This provides artists with new exhibition opportunities, new audiences and benefactors, and appeals to art enthusiasts all over the world. Entry is Free. The TAE18 AUS will be held for the first time in Australia this year, in April 2018 at the Strathnairn Arts Gallery, Canberra.

The benefiting Not For Charity for 2018 is Pegasus Riding for the Disabled of the ACT - www.pegasusact.com.au For more information please visit: http://twitterartexhibit.org/call-for-artists/
