Heal Haiti




We graciously request your assistance in developing continued awareness and aid for victims affected by the devastation in Haiti.

Our intended efforts consist of the following:

1. Members of the MCA Student Alliance have begun efforts to collect requested items such as baby formula and summer clothes for citizens of Haiti.

2. A benefit concert, "Heal Haiti" is scheduled for February 19th 5-10PM at the Memphis College of Art Callicott Auditorium. The purpose of this event will be to raise awareness of Haiti's needs through a small presentation by Mr. Joshua Wyatt, who has had firsthand experience with victims prior to and preceding the earthquake. Mr. Wyatt will also explain the exact process of aid delivery.

3. In addition to the Mr. Wyatt's presentation several local bands including Bake Sale, Founders/Welders, Nick of 3-D Acid Glasses, and Artistik Approach will preform in order to raise money to further assist efforts in Haiti.

This event is FREE and open to the public!

Brode Gallery: Illustration, Design, & Computer Arts

SA Brode Gallery Representative, Justin Nunez, is currently accepting submissions for the Illustration, Design, and Animation Show in the Brode Gallery. If you wish to submit work(s) please bring them to the Illustration room located between DA Media and the Papermaking Studio, and place them in the bottom drawer.

Remember, works should be ready to hang, but do not have to be matted or mounted.

For further information please contact Justin Nunez, nunez_justin[at]mcastudent.org

Food & Clothes Drive



All items collected will be donated to an orphanage in Haiti. Since baby formula is their number one requested item I highly encourage donating this item.
