Rebuilding LA: Art Sales and Auctions for Fire Relief

Santa Monica Mountains by José Mandojana; Print for Sales here with 100% of proceeds going to Wildfire Relief

We are just over two weeks removed from the worst of the LA fires that impacted the Palisades and Altadena communities and ss of this Friday afternoon, the Hughes Fire in the Castaic Reservoir region remains active. To say the city is still grappling with the aftermath would be an understatement.

Today’s post highlights art sales and auctions where purchasing a beautiful piece of art for your home means contributing 100% of the proceeds to mutual aid and LA wildfire relief efforts.

For many of us shopping—or even the thought of buying something for your home—might seem like a distant desire right now, but by investing in the things we care about, we can take a step closer to rebuilding the LA we know and love (and we all know the data is unfortunately against us).
