September 2024 Market

In September 2024, Art for Aid hosted their first artist solidarity market at 27th Letter Books in Detroit, Michigan. With 18 artist vendors, a raffle table with donated items, a polaroid photo station, and food and drink donated from Pink Flamingo Detroit and Bhandu Gardens. The market raised over $4,000 for donation which was split among three organizations—Gaza Medical Tent, Khartoum Aid Kitchen, and Goma Actiff.
