Drawn to Develop
Drawn to Develop [D2D]
From paper to print: collaborations between street kids around the world and Canadian photographers.
[The Project]
Inspired by the desire to create a unique storytelling collaboration through the power of art, Drawn To Develop features stories brought to life from the eyes of street kids through the lenses of photographers.
In the spring of 2008, Drawn To Develop engaged youth workers from Toronto-based Street Kids International to collect drawings from youth across the globe depicting their daily lives.
Drawn to Develop is challenging Canada's top photographers to take these drawings and create an original print that encapsulates the story.
These unique prints will be auctioned off at a charity gala on October 16th, 2008 at the Fermenting Cellar in Toronto's historic Distillery District. All proceeds raised by the auction will go towards Street Kids International.
This will enable them to have greater reach through their programs as they continue to empower and educate street kids to transform their lives.
