Beyond Boundaries
Art for Causes invites artists to turn a cricket bat into a work of art for Beyond Boundaries, a fundraiser supporting our education initiatives.
Selected artists will receive a wooden bat to work on, or they can create their own bat in cloth, metal, ceramics or another medium. Artists receive 50% of the sale proceeds. The artist and the Art for Causes panel will agree on the selling price together.
Finished artwork must reach Hyderabad by 31 December 2026. Artists cover the cost of shipping the finished work. Please share this call with artists who may like to take part.

Ethereal and Eternal Himalayas
‘Eternal and Ethereal Himalayas’ is a collaborative initiative between ICONART Gallery and Art For Causes to raise funds for the third round of spinal surgery for a young boy from Rajasthan. Art for Causes has been supporting the medical expenses of this child as the entire savings of his parents have been wiped out in his treatment . Distinguished photographer Satyaprasad Yachendra, who has been shooting in the Himalayas for decades has very graciously joined our fundraising efforts. Participating artists take inspiration from his photographs and interpret them in their unique styles in different medias. An exhibition will be held in January 2025 at ICONART Gallery and a pdf brochure will be widely circulated.
Everyone dreams of a better life. Support our educational and health initiatives for children from marginalised backgrounds and help us change lives, collectively.
