Artists For Morocco, Emergency Relief Print Sale
On the evening of Friday September 8th, Morocco was hit by a catastrophic 6.8 magnitude earthquake. As the country mourns the loss of over 2,000 lives and 1,404 seriously injured people, the World Health Organisation estimates that the earthquake has already impacted over 300,000 people. The number is likely to continue climbing.
As urgent calls are made for international aid, a new collective emerges in a bid to raise vital funds for critical on the ground assistance.
Artists For Morocco, a newly launched print sale, will be donating all proceeds to two NGOs: Amal Women’s Training Center (a Marrakesh-based women’s charity delivering food to victims in need) and Rif Tribes Foundation (an NGO working to bring aid and support to the affected remote villages).

Yes, that is her patter in the hall.
She has returned.”

Reanimate the shadows of the room,
Her eyes nocturnal beings exquisite
With witchery to make the stillness bloom;”
