Now accepting art submissions! The deadline to donate art is April 17!


We’re excited to share an opportunity for artists to make a meaningful impact through their art! Homespun Events and Simpson Housing Services are hosting the 15th annual Art 4 Shelter event, which benefits individuals impacted by homelessness in our community. Artists are invited to donate their artwork, with 100% of the proceeds supporting Simpson Housing Services’ vital programs. All artwork is welcome, including originals, prints, pottery, jewellery, and more. Each piece of art sold directly supports one person for one night in the shelter, providing them with a safe place to stay and essential resources. Here’s how you can be a part of it:

  • Donate your artwork to the event.
    • Donated items will be sold either in the original art sale, the online auction, or the new artist marketplace.  Our guidelines for artwork submission can be found here. When submitting art, please include this form for each piece of art donated.
  • Attend the event on May 1 at Quincy Hall in Minneapolis (and bring your friends!)

We hope to see you and/or your artwork at Art 4 Shelter! Questions? Reach out to art4shelter@simpsonhousing.org
