Vassar Haiti Project Art Sale
Walk This Way Alone, Adrien Seide, 20 x 24
The Vassar Haiti Project (VHP), a student-run non-profit organization, is holding its 15th annual sale of Haitian paintings and handcraft, beginning Friday, September 18. Proceeds from the event support numerous programs in Chermaitre—a mountain village in Haiti unreachable by road.
In order to support sustainable development in Chermaitre, VHP sells Haitian art that we buy in our yearly trip to Haiti. We hold art sales every year to fundraise for our different projects in areas of Education, Health, Environment and Women.
Founded by Andrew Meade, director of international services at Vassar College, and his wife, Lila, VHP has raised more than $1,000,000 since 2001.
