Two of our artists, ShaKed Kaplan and Moshe Mikanovsky,  just launched their new initiative named ILartTO.

This is what they told us:

Our main goal is to enhance artistic opportunities for Israeli artists in Toronto and North America. And we have many ideas on how to do it!

Our first project is an Art Exhibition, that will take place in April 2011, at the Holy Blossom Temple in Toronto. We have published our new Calls for Artists, inviting Israeli and/or Jewish artists from all over the world to submit artwork for the show. The name of the show is “But My Roots Are On Both Sides Of The Sea”. We love this concept of being connected to our roots in Israel even while living in Toronto. And this is the theme of the exhibition.

Attached here is the Calls for Artists information, as well as ILartTO’s website: www.ILartTO.com. Feel free to contact ILarTO for any information regarding the submission and the exhibition.

If you also know anyone who might be interested in this participating at our exhibition, please forward this information to them.

Goodluck ShaKed and Moshe with this great initiative!
