In collaboration with the Fabric Arts Council and the Craft and Hobby Association, the Charity Wings Art & Craft Center is happy to coordinate the traveling exhibit portion of the Banners of Hope Project! What is the Banners of Hope Project? It started with two friends and an idea. These friends wanted to do a project together to inspire hope through fabric arts. That conversation grew into the Banners of Hope Project which has become an international sensation allowing many artists, from all over the world (Greece, Mexico, UK, Israel, Australia, Canada, Taiwan, and many more), to participate and make a difference. Everyone is welcome to start their own Banners of Hope Project (CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS) and Charity Wings is happy to be the official “Model” and coordinator of the traveling exhibit!
A TRAVELING EXHIBITION….WHERE ARE THE BANNERS TODAY?

Nominate a location: At present we are looking for locations in Southern California particularly the Greater San Diego, Orange County, and Riverside County Areas. These venues will allow Banners of Hope to develop an installation process which will be easily transferred to future venues. We are also hoping to receive requests from venues to participate worldwide, so if you would like to host the Banners please send the name of the location and proper contact information to info@charitywings.org.
