Old Pal Provisions Partners With Subliminal Projects to Launch Legalize Humanity Gallery Pop-Up

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Old Pal Provisions has partnered with contemporary art gallery Subliminal Projects to host Legalize Humanity, a pop-up exhibition of artists supporting the Legalize Humanity campaign’s first beneficiary The Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES) and the organization's mission to provide legal and social assistance to vulnerable immigrant and refugee groups at the border. The exhibition will be open to the public from February 1-8 and will support Old Pal's Legalize Humanity campaign, which aims to raise awareness for marginalized communities by supporting non-profits championing equality for all. The opening reception for Legalize Humanity will take place on February 1 from 7-10 PM at Subliminal Projects on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles.

The Legalize Humanity art exhibition will bring together artists to support equality and marginalized communities. Contributing artists will include Buckley, Camilla Engstrom, Ed Templeton, Ernesto Yerena Montejano, Hilda Palafox (aka Poni), LAND, Matt McCormick, Paul Windle, Petecia Le Fawnhawk-Maggiori, Sofia Enriquez, Shepard Fairey, Sterling Bartlett, Swoon and more.

In conjunction with the exhibition, Old Pal Provisions will be selling Legalize Humanity campaign t-shirts, art prints, and accessories, designed by LAND that reinforce the project's central message. A portion of the proceeds from art sales and merchandise will benefit RAICES and the organization's vision of a compassionate society where all people have the right to migrate and human rights are guaranteed.

"It is our human values of compassion and the desire for harmony that strengthens connection and helps build community—a distinction that we can all sometimes take for granted," said Allison Pankow, Chief Marketing Officer of Old Pal. "Moving forward with hope, trust, and love, Old Pal's vision is to help people realize their power to create real change for humanity, communities and the environment, with the emphasis that everyone in this world deserves the right to live with dignity and the support of their fellow humans. Even small steps in choosing who and what we support with our dollar can make a lasting impact."

ABOUT SUBLIMINAL PROJECTS
"The driving principle of Subliminal Projects is that art should be accessible to everyone and that art can come from many different perspectives and cultural niches. Good art is good art, whether it's done on an album cover, a skateboard, canvas, or found cardboard." – Shepard Fairey

Subliminal Projects is a multi-functional project space and gallery established by Shepard Fairey and Blaize Blouin in 1995 as a way to introduce skateboard culture and design to the art world. The concept grew and found roots later in Los Angeles, at a time when many artists found themselves shut out by the "art scene." Subliminal Projects emerged as a gallery that championed emerging and marginalized artists, built out of cultural importance to serve as a center for the community to openly express and spark dialogue about art, music and activism. Now located in the historic neighborhood of Echo Park, Subliminal Projects continues to offer a platform for artistic exploration and innovation.
