COLOR4ACTION Street art in support of the COVID-19 emergency

Based in West London’s Connaught Village, contemporary Fine Art Gallery Dorothy Circus is taking a creative route to do their bit to support the COVID-19 emergency, by partnering with Yourban2030 to launch the Color4Action campaign.

Yourban2030 is a global, non-profit association founded by experts in environmental, social and cultural issues. In response to the pandemic, Dorothy Circus and Yourban2030 set up the Color4Action campaign, the first global outreach program to use street art colouring to raise money to support efforts to combat COVID-19. More than 40 street artists from around the world have provided a collection of drawings ready to be downloaded and coloured. Supporting the program is really simple; donate directly to the hospitals/NGOs aiding the COVID-19 emergency and suggested by the participating street artists, send the receipt to [email protected], and you will then receive a web link to downloadable versions of the artwork.

Join the global campaign and share your colouring on social media using the nominated hashtags #color4action #streetart4covid #color4covid #yourban2030 #dorothycircusgallery, or take it one step further and email your colouring art to [email protected], with the chance to be selected by the artists and Yourban2030 to be part of the exclusive new Colouring book!
