art movement
 

Art Movement is a group of creative people that enjoys art and athletics. The group participates in New York Road Runners events — 5K (3.1m) and 10K (6.2m) — to raise funds to help artists in need and other socially responsible causes. Art Movement is a community that supports and inspires each other.

Summer 2008 Update
Art Movement cares about the environment and this summer is fundraising for beach cleanup in northwest Puerto Rico. The beaches in that area are absolutely beautiful, but there is also garbage. These are the beaches where I grew up and I want to make sure they are pristine and preserved for generations to come.


Join Us
I invite everyone to join Art Movement. The group is open to all — fast and slow, run and walk, artists and others alike. The goal is to connect artists, runners, and anyone interested in the environment to participate in one way or another. Please email me at artrossana [at] gmail [dot] com, if you are interested in participating. More event details to come.

How it all began...
Art Movement began last year when I learned a good friend's computer, video camera, and equipment were stolen from her studio. Seeing my friend upset made me think of ways I could help her even if I couldn't provide financial assistance. We are both artists, runners, and came to New York from other places of the world (she is from Canada, I am from Puerto Rico) to be artists. The least I could do was to show her I cared and wanted to do something to help her.
