We invite ANY AND ALL artists, as well as non-professional artists who use creative expression to enhance their mental wellness, to submit artwork for our event.
This is a fundraiser for CHARG Resource Center; event proceeds fund high-impact, behavioral health services that empower individuals managing both financial instability and chronic mental illness. For details, visit

If you have a piece that you’d like to submit that doesn’t quite fit these dimensions, contact us at
events@charg.org to request possible accommodation.
4. Price of Artwork/Proceeds: We ask all artists to set the price for which they would like to sell their artwork. If the artwork sells, a minimum of 50% of the price will be donated to CHARG, and artist will receive the rest. (Artist can choose to donate between 50-100% of the proceeds).

PLEASE NOTE
Artists will be notified between March 22-25, if their artwork is selected to be displayed. We will offer dates/time to drop-off art at our Heartland Clinic in the Capitol Hill area of Denver (and will work with you if none of the proposed times work). We will take a high-resolution photo for our online bidding system. If your artwork does not sell, we will notify you at the end of April/first part of May and you will be able to pick it back up at that time.
** If artist is able to supply a high-resolution, quality photo of artwork, the piece may not need to be dropped off to CHARG for a picture.**
